Former teacher facing child pornography charges instructed to live in Moose Jaw

A former teacher in Saskatoon that’s facing child pornography charges as well as sexual exploitation and child luring charges out of Red Deer is now reportedly living in Moose Jaw.

39-year-old Rhett Jeffrey Lundgren was arrested back in December 2016 and the subsequent investigation led to further charges relating to an alleged incident with a teenager back in 2009. 

Lundgren was back in Red Deer court this week and was released based on residing in Moose Jaw. With his Saskatoon case, Lundgren was instructed to reside with his father due to breaching those release conditions.

“We’re very aware of his presence here in Moose Jaw and we’re taking steps to closely monitor the conditions that he’s been placed upon by the courts,” said Sgt. Rick Johns of the Moose Jaw Police. “Anytime you send your children into public places you should always be aware of whose around and keep an eye on your kids.”

Sgt. Johns added parents should be cautious of who they leave their children in the care of at any time, but if you notice Lundgren in an area where kids may be you should to call the police.

“If somebody feels they’ve spotted him in a public place where there’s children present, it’s certainly worthy of a call to the police so we can follow up to the fact of whether he’s abiding by his conditions.”

He must also follow a curfew, have no contact with the alleged victims and he is not to have unsupervised contact with minors.
