Local FBI agents tell Local 2 Investigates they are working on a recent case of child sexual assaults that is one of the worst they’ve ever seen, involving more than 90 victims. The FBI says it’s likely there are more victims that law enforcement doesn’t know about and they want to reach out to offer victims’ assistance to those who could now be adults.
“This is one of the most prolific alleged predators we’ve ever seen,” Houston FBI Special Agent Shauna Dunlap told Local 2 Investigates.
The suspect, William James Vahey, 64, of South Carolina, killed himself after the FBI began an investigation.
Vahey was not from Houston, but Dunlap says it is possible he had contacts with children of Houston-area families. He has taught at American schools abroad in various countries for years.
The Houston FBI was called in to investigate images found while Vahey worked at the American School in Nicaragua. The FBI says images show Vahey sexually molesting children.
