A retired teacher who told police he sexually assaulted two former students decades ago thought the statute of limitations had run out, but found out he was wrong -- and found himself behind bars.
Donald Ingerson, 67, who taught in the St. Louis area from the 1960s through the 1990s before moving to Minnesota, first called St. Louis police in early June to tell them he had raped two girls -- one in the 1970s and the other in the 1990s, authorities said. He met with them on Monday and spelled out his crimes, according to authorities.
"This is the first time we've had someone contact our office and say, `I want to talk about what I did,' " St. Louis County prosecutor Bob McCulloch told reporters during a news conference.
Ingerson, who has been charged with rape and statutory sodomy, remains jailed on $300,000 cash bond after being arrested and charged Monday. He doesn't have an attorney, and McCulloch said the suspect seemed surprised to learn the statute of limitations had not expired in at least one of the cases. McCulloch also told reporters that he believes there could be other victims. More
