WEST FARGO, N.D. (KVRR) – A former West Fargo teacher who suddenly resigned earlier this month is accused of soliciting a minor by computer.
Fifty-eight-year-old Ronald Thompson has been charged with one count of luring a minor by computer or other electronic means.
West Fargo Police Chief Denis Otterness says investigators received a tip from an out-of-state investigator on Jan. 28 that Thompson was attempting to solicit a minor online. He says the “minor” who Thompson was attempting to lure was actually an out-of-state investigator posing as a minor.
According to court documents, Thompson believed he was communicating with a 14-year-old girl. He admitted to chatting online with multiple females, but denied having any inappropriate contacts or chats with anyone in the immediate area.
