Redmond High School counselor arrested for alleged inappropriate relationship with student

A Redmond High School counselor has been arrested for allegedly having an inappropriate relationship with a student, the Redmond Police Department announced in a news release Friday.

The RPD said 35-year-old Derik Detweiler, of Kenmore, was taken into custody without incident in Cody, Wyoming, on Thursday night. Detweiler will remain in custody until he is extradited back to Washington. Police did not share what Detweiler's connection to Wyoming is or how they were able to track him down there.

The King County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office charged Detweiler with communication with a minor for immoral purposes, sexual misconduct with a minor in the second degree, and supplying liquor to a minor. It’s currently unclear when Detweiler will return to King County to face his charges. Police told KOMO News Friday it is dependent on the extradition process in Wyoming.
