Itasca ISD Superintendent Suspended After Arrest in Child Sex Sting

Itasca ISD Superintendent Michael Stevens has been suspended after being arrested and charged with online solicitation of a minor. The school district has appointed Keith Boles as interim superintendent. Stevens was communicating with an undercover officer via a social media app and was planning to engage in sex acts with the person he thought was a 15-year-old girl before he was arrested. The school district says they are confident that there are no connections between allegations made against Stevens and students at Itasca ISD. Stevens made his first court appearance on June 2 and was given a $100,000 bond.
