A previous affidavit identified De Luna as having previously worked as an assistant band director within Harper ISD.
After further investigation, six warrants were issued for De Luna’s rearrest. He was apprehended around 1 p.m. Friday at his home in Harper, Texas, the sheriff’s office said.
Investigators said they found several recordings of young females on a digital cloud storage obtained through a warrant.
“The digital evidence determined Mr. De Luna had video recordings from a Theater dressing/changing room located at Harper High School in his digital cloud storage,” the sheriff’s office said in a Facebook post.
The sheriff’s office said Harper ISD administration has been working closely with investigators in this case.
The Gillespie County Sheriff’s Office said it is reaching out to parents and all who may be affected by this investigation, and more charges could be filed at a later date.
“As your Sheriff I personally made the arrest of Mr. De Luna. I have and will always protect the safety and welfare of our youth in Gillespie County,” Sheriff Chris Ayala stated on Facebook.
