KINGMAN – A Kingman school teacher has been arrested for alleged sexual activity with a 15-year-old boy. 29-year old Brent Michael Miracle was arrested Monday and booked into the Mohave County Adult Detention Center on sexual conduct with a minor and contributing to the delinquency of a minor charges.

Public Information Officer Jennifer Sochocki said Kingman police opened an investigation on August 7 after being advised that a Kingman Unified School District (KUSD) employee was possibly sexually involved with a teenager.

“The investigation revealed that Miracle met a juvenile victim on a dating app and engaged in sexual conduct with the victim in December, 2018,” Sochocki said. “Miracle admitted his involvement.”

Sochocki said the victim did not attend Kingman Middle School where Miracle was working as a math teacher during the time of the incident that has been charged. KUSD Superintendent Gretchen Dorner said Miracle transitioned to a 6th grade school teacher when the current school year began.

“We reassigned Mr. Miracle immediately to temporary paid administrative reassignment leave to home the same morning he was arrested,” Dorner said. 

Sochocki said additional charges may result from ongoing investigation.
