Blue Valley School District parents are angry after a registered sex offender who once admitted to having child pornography was allowed to go to an elementary school dance.
“When you go read about what he was charged with, then I’m not so fond of him taking videos,” said Blue Valley parent Colter Daubert.
FOX4 isn’t naming the offender but, parents shared a picture of the man appearing to capture images or video on a cell phone of the Sole Mate Dance for students in grades one through six at Blue River Elementary School in early February.

In 2011, that same man pleaded guilty to having and sharing child pornography and went to prison before getting supervised release.
He’s still on the sex offender registry for the next 17 years because court documents say, at the time, detectives found hundreds of pictures and videos of naked girls between one and 14 years old, including of a six to eight-year-old girl being sexually assaulted.
“There’s no way I would let someone like that even around the children,” said Daubert.
