SANTA FE (KRQE) – State Police have started an internal investigation following the arrest of an art teacher, who had been investigated by their officers years ago.

State Police got a complaint against Aaron Chavez in 2012, accusing him of touching a student at Santo Nino Catholic School where he works. But State Police say investigators never took action and they don’t know why.

The Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office recently started investigating Chavez. They have now charged him in the 2012 case and three others.
