Oklahoma Schools Superintendent Ryan Walters Investigated Over Alleged Porn Display

During an executive session on Thursday, July 24, State Board members Ryan Deatherage and Becky Carson saw sexually explicit images on a TV in State Superintendent Ryan Walters' office.
Tensions rose in recent months as the State Board questioned Walters' authority after Governor Kevin Stitt replaced a majority of the board earlier this year.
During the executive session, Carson and Deatherage said they witnessed fully nude women on Walters' office TV, and Walters continued the meeting after removing the images.
The Oklahoma County Sheriff's Office is leading the investigation, with Hilbert requesting a review, saying, 'These are serious allegations made by two members of the State Board and an expeditious third-party review is warranted. I urge the State Superintendent to unlock and turn over all relevant devices and fully cooperate with an investigation. If no wrongdoing occurred, a prompt and transparent review should quickly clear his name,' Hilbert said in a statement.
Amid rising scrutiny, Cyndi Munson warned Oklahomans need new leadership at the Oklahoma State Department of Education.
