Location: Moorpark High School Tierra Rejada Road, Moorpark, Ca.

A 38-year-old mathematics teacher at Moorpark High School was arrested Monday, after he showed a 15-year-old student a nude image of himself.

Investigators arrested Christopher Wright after investigating an allegation by one of his former students that he had shown the victim a nude image of himself, which he had stored on his cellular telephone.

The two were discussing the modeling business, when Wright offered to show the girl images of his friends, who work as models. Instead, he showed the girl a nude image of himself.

Investigators arrested Wright for a single felony count of sending harmful matter with the intent of seducing of a minor. Wright was booked at the East County Jail in Thousand Oaks and was released on bond.

Because of Wright’s access to minors, investigators are concerned there may be other victims of this type of behavior. Anyone with information about similar activities by Christopher Wright is asked to contact the East County Sexual Assault Unit at (805)494-8201.
