Albany County residents Kristy Koldis, age 45, and Joshua White, age 46, both of Latham, were arrested Friday, July 28, after troopers were tipped off that inappropriate pictures of a child were being shared online.
Investigators determined that the pair had taken photos of a child without their knowledge while the victim was in “compromising positions,” according to New York State Police.
The photos involved in the case were not taken on any school property or athletic venues.
Koldis, a counselor at Stephen and Harriet Myers Middle School in Albany and professor at Russell Sage College in Troy, is charged with the following:
- Unlawful surveillance
- Endangering the welfare of a child
- Obstructing governmental administration
White, who is actively involved in local youth baseball and basketball, is charged with:
- Unlawful surveillance
- Endangering the welfare of a child
Both were released from custody following their arraignment at the Colonie Town Court.
Koldis has since been placed on administrative leave by the City School District of Albany.
New York State Police asked anyone with information in the case to contact the agency at 518-457-6811 or email CrimeTip@troopers.ny.gov.
