A former Nampa teacher was arrested this week on sexual abuse charges, and police are seeking information on other possible victims.
Keith Odell Peterson, 70, is charged with lewd conduct with a minor child under the age of 16 and sexual battery of a minor, the Idaho Statesman reported.
Police say the victim was a juvenile male and an acquaintance, not one of Peterson’s former students. But because Peterson is a former teacher, police are seeking information about other possible victims. (If you have any information, call the Nampa Police Department at 208-465-2257.)
Peterson taught Spanish in Nampa’s West Junior High School, South Junior High School and Nampa High School from 1977 through 1991, district spokeswoman Kathleen Tuck told the Statesman.
