This is a 4th grade teacher getting arrested for sending inappropriate messages to a child. There is an epidemic of child predators in the teaching profession.

@Notwokenow What a sicko

Yes!!!!!

@Notwokenow Anyone that does that should be in prison

@Notwokenow He's still not understanding he's wrong... maybe prison will help him.. doubtful.

I hope it’s a brutal education.

@Notwokenow @garbage_pailtm Homeschool your children.

@Notwokenow I have a better idea and more permanent solution

@Notwokenow "Is there a simple way to do this?" Why yes, yes there is...

@Notwokenow Pedo's gravitate to where children are, nowadays they've become teachers and politicians.

@Notwokenow Damn straight it’s an epidemic! And one that needs to be eradicated by the WOODCHIPPER!!!!!!!

@Notwokenow My heart breaks for all the kids today in public schools.

@Notwokenow

@Notwokenow Men teaching elementary school kids is always a red flag.

@Notwokenow @instapundit

@Notwokenow

@Notwokenow @RogueNomad2

@Notwokenow What’s crazy is the amount of female teachers being arrested for it. No one is covering it and asking why it’s happening so frequently.

@Notwokenow Keep your children out of the public schools

@Notwokenow To prey on children, you have to be where they are at. I trust NO ONE that deals with children. Teachers, day care, whomever. It's sad but I assume they are pedos and act accordingly.

@Notwokenow Thats the guy calling you nazi on social media.

@Notwokenow @godnharley Homeschooling is the only truly safe answer!

@Notwokenow

@Notwokenow He just thought it would get swept under the rug, lol. GTFOH Throw his ass away

@Notwokenow @Paulspound There is a simple way to take care of it, yes. But it’s illegal and I can’t write it on X!

CAPITAL PUNISHMENT FOR ALL PED0S/ANYONE WHO COMMITS S£X CRIMES ON KIDS OR BABIES!!! In the quiet town of Coulee Dam, Washington, nestled near the massive Grand Coulee Dam in a rural corner of the state, life at Lake Roosevelt Elementary School appeared ordinary—until October 13, 2025. Ross Ashenfelter, a 42-year-old fourth-grade teacher who had been teaching homeroom in the Grand Coulee Dam School District since at least 2024, became the center of a serious criminal investigation. The case began months earlier, in August 2025, when an undercover detective from the Kittitas County Sheriff's Office, working as part of the Washington Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, posed as a 13-year-old girl online. Ashenfelter responded to an advertisement offering sexual services for money. What followed was a series of explicit text message exchanges between him and the “teen,” who was actually the detective. According to reports, the conversations escalated: Ashenfelter discussed arranging a meetup, reportedly suggesting they connect at an Ellensburg High School football game. He even mentioned providing Plan B emergency contraception for the supposed minor. The interactions were described as inappropriate and aimed at facilitating immoral purposes, including sexual contact. The sting operation culminated on Monday, October 13, 2025, a school holiday when classes were not in session and the building was largely empty. At approximately 11:55 a.m., Kittitas County deputies—assisted by Coulee Dam police—arrested Ashenfelter at Lake Roosevelt Elementary School itself. He had been on campus doing administrative work. Deputies took him into custody without incident on probable cause for the felony charge of Communication with a Minor for Immoral Purposes under Washington state law. Body camera footage from the arrest later went viral, showing the tense moment: officers confronting Ashenfelter, reading him his Miranda rights, and detaining him as he appeared shocked and initially questioned or denied elements of the allegations. In one account from the case report, he admitted the conversation was inappropriate but claimed he never intended to follow through with a meeting. After the arrest, Ashenfelter was transported to Ellensburg and booked into the Kittitas County Jail. The sheriff's office promptly notified the Grand Coulee Dam School District, which began communicating with law enforcement. Superintendent Rod Broadnax issued a statement reassuring the community that the district follows strict hiring protocols, including thorough background checks. The investigation remained ongoing, with authorities encouraging anyone with relevant information to contact the dispatch center, referencing case number S25-14609. The incident shocked the small community, where Lake Roosevelt Elementary serves local families in a tight-knit area. It fueled broader online discussions about the prevalence of such cases in schools, the importance of online safety for children, and calls for vigilance in educational settings. No additional victims were publicly identified in initial reports, and the focus remained on the undercover communications. As of January 11, 2026, public records and news coverage indicate the case was still in its early stages, with no widely reported updates on arraignment outcomes, trial status, or final resolution beyond the initial booking and charge. The story stands as a stark reminder of how proactive law enforcement stings can interrupt potential harm before it occurs.

@Notwokenow homeschooling is really easy and can be free with library and internet access

@Notwokenow Any adult that wants to be close to children other than their own should be a red flag.

@Notwokenow Teacher: Is there a simple way to do this? Officer: It’s a Class 3 Felony Simple: Go to prison. Do not Pass go.

@Notwokenow "Is there a simpler way to do this?" Why yes buddy yes there is

@Notwokenow @Navy9315 It is absolutely an epidemic. These sick people think the classroom is a buffet for their sick perverted fantasies.

@Notwokenow A teacher dresses like a homeless person??
