Peterson met the girl in his class and groomed her by arranging
meetings at Disneyland and other
social events. The relationship turned sexual in April 2010, with the
teacher snapping sexually explicit photos of
himself with her text messages
about their sexual escapades.

Unfortunately for Peterson–who also unfortunately shares a name with a wife killer–his texts were discovered on the girl's phone by a family member,
who passed them along to the girl's mother, who passed them along to the
Orange Police Department.

When detectives went to arrest Peterson, he was back at the riverbed where he met the girl for sex. Her car was parked nearby, but she left without the officers confronting
her at that time. Soon after, Peterson walked out–and was immediately cuffed and hauled away.
