Overview

  • The Millcreek Township School District voted Monday to pursue legal action against Ian Roberts and Ray and Associates, saying the board was misled during the 2020 superintendent search.
  • Des Moines Public Schools filed suit on Oct. 3 against JG Consulting, alleging negligent vetting, misrepresentation, and breach of contract tied to Roberts’ 2023 hiring.
  • Roberts remains in U.S. Marshals custody in Polk County on a federal charge of being an illegal alien in possession of firearms following his Sept. 26 ICE arrest.
  • Investigators say a loaded handgun, a hunting knife, and $3,000 in cash were found in a district vehicle, with additional firearms recovered at Roberts’ home.
  • A local immigration attorney outlined why multiple green-card denials and expired work authorization make regaining status difficult, as records show failed applications in 2001 and 2018 and a 2024 removal order.
