Keller school band director exposed himself to three students in bathroom, police say
A Keller intermediate school band director exposed his penis to students as he stood near urinals on its campus, police alleged on Friday as they arrested him on suspicion of three counts of indecency with a child.
In an arrest warrant affidavit, Keller police described a boy’s account that Jedidiah Maus, 35, was on one occasion angled toward a mirror on a bathroom wall at Bear Creek Intermediate. The student said he saw Maus holding his penis in his hand as the band director looked at him in the mirror.
Keller police received in early September a report from the Keller Independent School District that Maus exposed himself to a student. Maus separately exposed himself to two other students in a school bathroom, police said.
One of the students reported to authorities a time when Maus told the boy that he was going to urinate in the sink and told him to watch. Maus told the student that the boy needed to walk further into the restroom, the affidavit states. The boy said that he saw Maus’ penis as the band director urinated in the sink.
The Keller ISD said that it placed Maus, who lives in Hurst, on leave when it was notified of one of the improper encounters.
Police said that anyone with information related to the case should contact the Keller police at 817-743-4600 or CrimeTips@cityofkeller.com.
