SUMMARY: A Texas school district superintendent has been charged with online solicitation of a minor. Michael Stevens, superintendent at Itasca ISD, is accused of communicating online with an undercover officer who he believed was a 15-year-old girl. If Stevens posts the $100,000 bond, he must submit to random drug tests, have no contact with anyone under 17, and install monitoring software on his computer. The app Stevens used preserves user anonymity and doesn’t require phone or email registration. Stevens allegedly sent explicit photos to the officer and discussed meeting in person for sex.
