Investigators say the student met Bourdett when he was a teacher at Natomas Pacific Pathways Charter School back in 2017. She was 17-years-old at the time and says she met repeatedly with Bourdett at his Cameron Park home over the following 6 months.

Bourdett has since started teaching at El Dorado High School. Investigators say there has been no evidence of any other possible victims.

Detectives arrested Bourdett on Thursday. He has been placed on administrative leave from El Dorado High School.
