WRTV Investigates Kara Kenney fights for what's right and holds those in power accountable.

KOKOMO, Ind. — A Kokomo father is speaking out after he says his son was victimized by someone the family knew and trusted.

Brok Westfall’s allegations against Jansen are included in the prosecutor’s charging documents, which say in April 2023, Westfall went to the Indiana State Police Peru Post to report that in 2006-2008 when he was 16-18-years-old, Jansen groomed him and directed him to perform sexual related acts for money.

Westfall said it wasn’t until he had issues in his marriage, which ended in divorce, that he sought counseling and reported Jansen to Indiana State Police.“It’s been a long time coming,” said Westfall in response to the criminal charges filed against Jansen. WRTV Investigates asked Taylor Community School Corporation Superintendent Steve Dishon why Jansen was allowed to resign rather than terminate him.

WRTV Investigates contacted IDOE, and a spokesperson said they don’t have any records of such a report.
