A female college student told a Coeur d’Alene police detective that she received financial aid money in exchange for giving photos of a sexual nature to former North Idaho College financial aid director Joseph M. Bekken. Bekken already is facing five felony charges in his alleged scheme to entice students to have sex in exchange for college aid. A Kootenai County prosecutor said this week that additional charges may be filed in the case. Bekken, who posted bond and was released from jail Tuesday, will appear March 19 before 1st District Court Magistrate Clark A. Peterson. Coeur d’Alene Police Officer Gus Wessel, who is assigned to NIC as a school resource officer, met with and interviewed the female student who claims Bekken paid her for the pictures using financial aid funds/Scott Maben, SR.
