SPOKANE, Wash. – A Warden teacher was sentenced to 180 months in prison on August 26, 2026, for sexually exploiting a 13-year-old boy and producing child pornography, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Washington.
Andrea Lee Campos-Hernandez, 26, pleaded guilty to abusing the minor from February 2021 to July 2022. She photographed and recorded video of herself and the boy engaged in sexual intercourse and sent him sexually suggestive images of herself.
During sentencing, the victim told Campos-Hernandez: “Today I am speaking because you no longer get to control my voice. You took away parts of my childhood that I will never get back.”
First Assistant United States Attorney Pete Serrano said the sentence sends a clear message. “As a teacher, every family entrusted their children to Ms. Campos-Hernandez. Her violation of that sacred trust places her victimization on another level. Although not seen as often, female sexual offenders exist, and justice demands they be treated the same as their male counterparts.”
The case was investigated by the FBI and the Warden Police Department and is part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative to combat child sexual exploitation and abuse.
