Patrick John Mester, a former teacher at James C. Enochs High School, was arrested following a three-year investigation into inappropriate conduct with a 16-year-old student.
The investigation began when the victim’s mother found Mester in her daughter's bedroom, prompting authorities to take immediate action to ensure Mester had zero contact with students.
Charges against Mester include lewd acts with a minor and attempting to meet with a minor for lewd purposes, stemming from a careful investigation into the case.
Mester, a band leader at the school before his termination, has been held at a detention center with a bail set at $650,000.
