Salinas School District Employee Arrested-7/23/17-1622-PMD

An employee of the Santa Rita School District in Salinas has been arrested. The arrest came following an investigation started on July 6th after the guardians of a 13 year old girl turned over inappropriate emails to police. An officer, posing as the intended 13 year old victim,  took over the on line email relationship with 32 year old Jesus Ortega of Prunedale.  The emails became sexually explicit and on Thursday, Ortega was taken into custody as he thought he was going to meet with the victim with the intent to commit sexual acts. The Salinas police Department is asking anyone with any information on possible additional victims to contact Detective Jared Sivertson at (831) 758-7132.
