Former OPS middle school teacher charged with sexual assault of a juvenile

A 35-year-old former Omaha middle school teacher is charged with sexual assault of a juvenile.

Omaha Police arrested Brian P. Robeson Tuesday. He’s being held in the Douglas County Department of Corrections on two counts of sexual assault of a juvenile.

Robeson was a seventh-grade math teacher at Alfonza W. Davis Middle School in Omaha. OPD says they were notified Monday of an alleged sexual relationship between Robeson and a 14-year-old former student of his.

OPD’s Special Victims Unit conducted interviews Tuesday with the victim, the victim’s parents, and Robeson.

A statement from OPS says Robeson is no longer employed by the school district, and they’re “saddened and deeply disappointed” by the allegations.
