This is an update to a press release (attached) the Sheriff's Office released on November 30, 2012.
Today, at about 5:00 p.m., 38-year-old Denise Keesee turned herself into the Washington County Jail. She was charged with six counts of Sexual Abuse in the Second Degree.
Mrs. Keesee is a former teacher at Sherwood High School. She is being charged for having sexual relationships with two of her former male students, while they were still attending the school. The relationships occurred at separate times between 2006 and 2012. Detectives suspect there are more victims who were involved with Mrs. Keesee.
The Sheriff's Office was asked to conduct the investigation by the Sherwood Police Department, because Mrs. Keesee's husband is a Sherwood Police Officer. He has not been charged and is not under investigation. Any inquires about Officer Keesee should be directed to the Sherwood Police Department.
The investigation has been complicated and is still ongoing. Sheriff's detectives are asking the public to report any information that may help their investigation into Mrs. Keesee. Further details of the investigation are not available at this time.
The Washington County Sheriff's Office would like to thank the Sherwood School District for their cooperation with this investigation.
