LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — A Las Vegas teacher arrested on suspicion of engaging in sex acts with a student may have additional victims, according to the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department.
Police on Monday announced the arrest of 36-year-old Jordan Bushey, who was booked into the Clark County Detention Center.
Las Vegas High School Principal Raymond Ortiz stated Bushey had been arrested for "charges related to an inappropriate relationship with a student." The school's website identified Bushey as the orchestra director.
Bushey was booked into the Clark County Detention Center on the following charges:
- six counts of school employee engage in sex act with pupil
- one count of unlawful communication between a person of authority and a pupil

"I want to assure you that all candidates for employment undergo a comprehensive criminal background check," Ortiz stated. "They are not hired unless they successfully clear their background check."
