Issaquah school bus driver charged with possessing child porn

Federal agents have arrested a part-time school bus driver
from Carnation on federal child porn charges.

A Homeland Security agent tracked sexually explicit
videos that were posted on a file sharing network to the
man’s home. A search warrant led to the arrest of
Andrew Rekdahl on Thursday.

A spokeswoman for the U.S. Attorney’s Office says
Rekdah is charged with possession and distribution of
child
pornography. He has since been released to the custody of
his father.

The man was a part-time, on call bus driver for Issaquah
Schools.

“Our main concern is that these alleged criminal behaviors
did not spill over into and occur during any of our work
times,” said Sara Niegowski, spokeswoman with the Issaquah
School District.

She said there were no complaints filed against Rekdahl
and he cleared mandatory district background checks.
