Prosecutors in Olathe say a high school choir director in Overland Park has been charged with two counts of sexual exploitation of a child and two counts of breach of privacy.
The Johnson County District Attorney's Office says it charged Joseph Heidesch, 45, on Thursday following his arrest Wednesday morning. Investigators say the Saint Thomas Aquinas High School choir director was found with images of a child engaged in sexually explicit conduct.
Officials also say he used a hidden camera to secretly record two victims as they were undressing. Investigators say the incidents happened between 2019 through September of this year.
The school says Heidesch has been placed on administrative leave.
