A 30-year-old man in northern Iowa has been arrested and charged with sex crimes against a Dubuque minor. Benjamin Hanson was a first year teacher at Eagle Grove high school. He was arrested recently on warrants out of Dubuque County. Hanson is charged with sexual exploitation of a minor and enticing a minor under the age of 16 for sexual purposes. Hanson is no longer an employee in the Eagle Grove school district. The alleged incidents happened last year, before Hanson began teaching in Eagle Grove. District officials say no students or staff associated with the school are involved in the case. Hanson was booked into the Wright County Jail and has since been released on bond.
