Substitute Teacher Robert Ashley Extradited for Sexual Assault on a Child
Wednesday, September 26th, 2007
Substitute Robert Ashley, 63, will be extradited from Montrose, Colorado to New Mexico for sexual assault on a child. An informant tipped off authorities that Ashley was staying at a Montrose hotel. Deputies took him into custody after an hour long surveillance.
Ashley is accused of hiding a video camera in a backpack to shoot upskirt pictures of young female students. Seems that staff at Atrisco Elementary found the video camera inside a backpack in the teacher’s lounge. The principal, an educational assistant and another teacher viewed the video, and called school district police. The next day a school counselor called the sheriff’s department (Kudos to school officials for acting quickly!)
