The Allen County Sheriff’s department will be forwarding reports to the Allen County Attorney’s office in order to file formal charges against Humboldt USD 258 vocational agriculture teacher Matt Kerr for alleged misconduct.
Kerr was suspended by the district on Jan. 7 under suspicion of misconduct. Sheriff Bryan Murphy said the Humboldt police came to the sheriff’s department in an effort to “remain transparent” during investigations.
According to a press release, the sheriff’s office was contacted by USD 258 Superintendent K.B. Criss and Humboldt Police Chief Brian Dillow in late December to request assistance with investigations.
On Friday afternoon, Criss had no comment about the matter.
