- Former Wright County deputy charged with sexually assaulting foreign exchange student living with him
Matthew Johnathon Weaver, a former Wright County deputy, has been charged with two counts of second-degree criminal sexual conduct after a 15-year-old foreign exchange student reported inappropriate touching and sexual comments from November 2025 to January 2026. Weaver denied allegations of sexual touching, attributing the behavior to 'Spanish culture' and claiming he called the student 'baby' due to the teen's family loss. The student documented incidents in a journal and shared text messages with authorities.
