Dance Teacher Accused of Sexual Contact With 13-Year-Old Student

A Bridgeport dance instructor was arrested Tuesday after allegedly having sexual contact with a 13-year-old student, including a sexually explicit photograph sent via text message, according to police.

John Sadowski, 26, of Fairfield, was charged with risk of injury to a minor, fourth-degree sexual assault and computer crimes, police said.

Authorities began investigating after the victim's mother contacted authorities in April to say she found the explicit photo in a text message exchange between Sadowski and her daughter, according to police.

Investigators later learned that sexual contact had transpired between Sadowski and the teen, who was one of his dance students, police said.
