Michigan High School Teacher Charged After Recording Girl In Tanning Parlor

CLIO (AP) — A mid-Michigan high school gym teacher has been arrested after allegedly video-recording a naked 14-year-old girl at a tanning parlor.

Forty-two-year-old Jacob Emmendorfer was arraigned Tuesday on charges of child sexually abusive activity, capturing or distributing an image of an unclothed person, and two counts of using a computer to commit a crime.

Genesee County Sheriff Robert Pickell says Emmendorfer was arrested Monday at Tropi Tan Spa in Clio after the girl saw a cellphone dangling over a wall separating her tanning cubicle from another, got dressed and ran out to tell her mother. Sheriff deputies responded within minutes and found Emmendorfer in an adjacent tanning cubicle.

Emmendorfer remained incarcerated Tuesday at the Genesee County Jail. It's unclear whether he has an attorney.

He's been suspended at Davison High School.
