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
