$500,000 bond set for school official accused of sex crime
GARRETSON, S.D. (AP) — A judge has set bond at $500,000 cash for the Garretson School District business manager, who's accused of soliciting a minor.
Fifty-eight-year-old Rodney Fischer was arrested Tuesday and made his initial court appearance Thursday. He did not enter a plea.
Authorities allege Fischer was caught in an online sting in which he solicited sex from what he thought was a 13-year-old girl but was actually an undercover agent.
Superintendent Guy Johnson says Fischer has been suspended from his school duties.
