(KTLA) — A Southern California teacher is under investigation after he allegedly fathered a child with one of his students.

The suspect was identified as Steve Graves, 61, by the Anaheim Police Department. Graves is currently employed with the Anaheim Union High School District.

On August 26, 2024, a woman reported to police that in the late 1980s, when she was a student at Loara High School in Anaheim, she had a sexual relationship with one of her teachers.

Detectives investigated and discovered a second woman who allegedly had a sexual relationship with the same teacher, Graves. She also told police she had a child together with him.

Both victims were minors at the time of the incidents.

On Aug. 29, Graves was placed on administrative leave by the school district. Anaheim police said they are in contact with him.

“Anaheim Police detectives are working with the Orange County District Attorney’s Office to determine what charges can be filed, if any, based on the statute of limitations,” officials said.

Graves has worked as a teacher at Loara High School in Anaheim, Ball Junior High School in Anaheim and Lexington Junior High School in Cypress.

No further details were released as the case remains under investigation.

Anyone who may have been a victim of the suspect or has information on the case is asked to call Detective Evenson at (714) 765-1623.

Anonymous tips can be provided to OC Crime Stoppers at 1-855-847-6227 or online at occrimestoppers.org.
