A former Norwalk teacher faces a sexual-exploitation charge after a recent high school graduate told police she had a two-year affair with him, Warren County court documents show.

Ryan Christopher Janssen, 31, was charged Wednesday after one of his former students told Norwalk police that she began a sexual relationship with Janssen while she was a 16-year-old junior at Norwalk High School. If convicted, Janssen could face up to five years in prison.

Janssen admitted the affair to Norwalk schools Superintendent Denny Wulf and athletic director Al Lammers on Sunday, court documents say. The Norwalk school board accepted Janssen's resignation Monday. The woman, now 18, told police Janssen promised to leave his wife. The woman also told police that Janssen bought her clothes, a ring, a living room set, a flat-screen TV and a cellular phone.

When Janssen tried to end the relationship, the former student told authorities, he wanted her to keep their affair a secret from her parents and school officials.

An Oskaloosa Middle School teacher has been charged with assault with intent to commit sexual abuse in an alleged incident that occurred almost two years ago.

Jeremy Chamberlin, 31, of Oskaloosa, was charged on Aug. 6. On Aug. 7, he was released on his own recognizance and has a preliminary hearing on Aug. 27 at 3 p.m. According to the complaint and affidavit filed at the Mahaska County Courthouse, he allegedly fondled a 16-year-old girl at her birthday party in September of 2006.

Oskaloosa Community School District Superintendent Carolyn McGaughey said that personnel matters are confidential and that when the district needs to take action in regards to personnel matters, it does so in an appropriate manner. She wrote in an e-mail that when the district is required to act upon personnel issues, it does so in accordance with state and federal statute as well as district board-approved policy.

Arthur Miller

Arthur Miller, a political science professor, was charged with four counts of bribery after he allegedly asked female students to let him fondle them in return for better grades.

University spokesman Steve Parrott said the university is conducting its own investigation, separate from the criminal case. Meanwhile, Miller is on paid leave and has been barred from having any contact with students until the criminal case is resolved, Parrott said.

Miller was arrested on Friday and released from jail on Saturday.

Police said he allegedly asked to touch the breasts of four female students between May 8 and 13. In return, he would give the students "A's" in his class.

Miller's wife, Natasha Ivanova, said she doesn't believe the allegations.

"The whole situation is very sad for us," Ivanova said. "I believe these accusations are false. We, as a family, are looking forward to the day all of these charges are dropped and his name is cleared."

Charges against a former teaching associate at Iowa City's West High School who was accused of having sex with a student have been dismissed.

Colleen Solberg was arrested in February and charged with lascivious conduct with a minor. She was accused of having sex with the student, passing poems and notes to the student and buying him a cell phone.

Court records show prosecutors dropped the charge after they were unable to get the alleged victim to testify at trial.

Robert Dale Rogers

A former longtime Carroll Middle School teacher pleaded guilty this morning to sexually abusing a former student.

Robert Dale "Bob" Rogers, 61, will be sentenced March 21 on one count of third-degree sexual abuse and one count of sexual exploitation by a school employee.

Rogers had agreed to a plea bargain that dropped two other counts of third-degree sexual abuse. Carroll County District Court Judge Joel Swanson accepted the pleas following a half-hour process to ensure that Rogers understood the charges and punishments and to ensure the court had established a factual basis to accept the pleas.

In questioning by Swanson, Rogers said he performed oral sex on a 14- or 15-year-old male student at least 10 times from January 2006 to June 2007. Authorities have said the incidents occurred at residences in Carroll. The locations have not yet been specified in court

Jeremy Hendricks

A former Marshalltown coach will be sentenced later this month on a misdemeanor charge of sexual exploitation by a school employee.

Jeremy Hendricks, a former assistant wrestling coach, was accused of an inappropriate relationship with a student at Marshalltown High School. He was charged in 2005 with a felony.

According to court records, he entered an Alford plea to the lesser charge last month. That means he doesn't admit guilt, but acknowledges he would likely be found guilty if he went to trial.

Kent Merrill Adamson
10-10-07

Kent Merrill Adamson, 45, of Creston was charged Tuesday with transporting obscene materials to a minor and coercion and exploitation of a minor — both felony charges.

Creston Police picked up Adamson on a federal warrant and transported him to Des Moines where he was turned over to U.S. Marshals.

According to the warrant and affidavit, the charges are the result of an investigation in related incidents between Jan. 29 and July 26 in which Adamson used the Internet to engage in sexual activity with a minor.

An agent with Iowa Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force stated a special FBI agent was working undercover and claimed to be a 14 year old female from Portland, Ore. That agent entered an Internet chat room called “Romance, Adult, Fetish 15” from the Yahoo Web site and was approached by an individual, now identified as Adamson, who identified himself as a 35-year-old single dad of three children living in Iowa. Over the course of time Adamson had 23 chat conversations with the supposed 14-year-old.
