A former teacher from Washington, D.C., has been detained by the FBI for allegedly requesting child pornography from a minor, as announced by the Justice Department on Monday. 

Devonne Keith Brown, 56, who was a health teacher at IDEA Public Charter School, is charged with soliciting child sexual abuse materials from a young girl in Prince George’s County, Maryland.

“Those who prey on minors to solicit the production of CSAM are morally reprehensible and will be held accountable for their heinous crimes,” stated Steven Jensen, assistant director in charge of the FBI Washington Field Office. “The FBI remains committed to protecting our children and ridding our communities of this grievous scourge.”

“This individual is no longer employed by the school,” the school said. “The safety and well-being of our students is our highest priority. We are fully cooperating with law enforcement and supporting their ongoing investigation. Based on the information currently available to us, there is no indication that any IDEA student was directly involved.”

Fox News Digital has reached out to the school.
