Valdosta State University has confirmed that dean Keith Walters has been put on administrative leave following his arrest for obscene internet contact with a child and sexual exploitation of children, Valdosta Daily Times reported.

Walters was one of 14 people caught in a law enforcement sting where authorities convinced suspects they would be meeting a child for sex.

The youngest suspect was 24 and the oldest was 57.

A previous version of this article said Walters was arrested for child pornography and human trafficking. He was instead charged with obscene internet contact with a child and sexual exploitation of children.
