On November 24, 2016, Fremont Detectives arrested Corine Audiat (32 year old female, Fremont resident) for unlawful sex acts with a minor.



The Fremont Police Department began investigating this case on November 23, 2016, after receiving a report of alleged sexual misconduct involving Audiat and a juvenile male. Officers learned the suspect was a Physical Education teacher at Washington High School in Fremont and the victim was a student. Detectives were immediately notified and took over the investigation.



During the investigation, detectives learned the suspect and victim began communicating in early 2016. Over the course of a several months, the conversations became more inappropriate and they eventually engaged in unlawful sexual intercourse.



On November 24, 2016, Fremont Detectives gathered enough evidence to arrest Corine Audiat on charges of unlawful sexual sex acts with a minor. Audiat was booked at Santa Rita Jail.



On November 30, 2016, additional charges were filed on Audiat by the Alameda County District Attorney at the Fremont Superior Courthouse.



This case is a very unfortunate situation for our community. Due to the age of the victim and the nature of the investigation, no information regarding the victim’s identity will be released. The victim is a minor and we ask the public (friends, school faculty and community members) as well as the press and media, that his identity remain confidential.



Fremont Detectives are continuing to investigate this case, and although there has been no evidence of additional victims, we will continue to pursue all leads.
