   A former Anderson New Technology High School teacher arrested   
   Wednesday for allegedly having an inappropriate relationship   
   with a 17-year-old student was formally charged Friday with 18   
   felony sex crimes.   
      
   Daniel James Schafer pleaded not guilty to the charges in Shasta   
   County Superior Court during his afternoon arraignment and saw   
   his bail raised to $300,000 from $100,000.   
      
   The Shasta County District Attorney's Office filed a criminal   
   case against the 35-year-old Schafer earlier in the day.   
      
   The 18-count criminal complaint includes 11 felony counts of   
   unlawful sexual intercourse and other sex-related charges.   
      
   According to a two-page Anderson Police case summary filed in   
   court, the alleged sexual relationship came to light on Sept. 7.   
      
   That's when, the report said, school resource officer Robert   
   Richardson was contacted by a district employee saying a male   
   teacher at Anderson New Technology High was having an affair   
   with a female student.   
      
   According to the police report, the girl told her school   
   counselor she had been having a sexual relationship with   
   Schafer, who was her teacher, over this year's summer school   
   break.   
      
   Authorities say the alleged conduct, which started when the girl   
   was 16, occurred at Schafer's home, on car trips and at the   
   school.   
      
   Anderson Union High School District Superintendent Tim Azevedo   
   interviewed Schafer, who reportedly admitted to having the   
   affair, the police report said.   
      
   Schafer submitted a letter of resignation to Azevedo on Sept. 7.   
      
   Police said further investigation into the case revealed the   
   teen provided her counselor a hand-written list of dates and   
   times when she and Schafer had sex.   
      
   Schafer was arrested after police officers went to his Redding   
   home to talk to him, the police report said.   
      
   "After he opened the front door, I introduced myself to him and   
   asked him if he knew why we were here," an officer wrote in the   
   report. "Yes, I do," he replied.   
      
   Taken to the Anderson Police Department for questioning, Schafer   
   declined to answer questions about the alleged affair and asked   
   for an attorney, the report said.   
      
   He was arrested, taken to Shasta County Jail and booked into   
   custody, it said.   
      
   Schafer, who was ordered Friday to have no contact with the   
   teenager, is scheduled to have a preliminary hearing on Sept. 27   
   to determine whether sufficient evidence exists to have him   
   ordered to stand trial on the charges.   
      
   A prosecutor said Schafer is facing more than 10 years in prison   
   if convicted at trial.
