Overview
- Police say the investigation began after school staff reported the 14-year-old missing and the girl’s father said she might be at a friend’s house in Oakdale, a development that investigators trace to the Olsons’ residence on Tuesday, May 26.
- Officers returned to the home late that night after a neighbor reported seeing the girl outside and found the teen concealed in a cardboard box under clothing in the couple’s bedroom.
- Search warrants on the Olsons’ apartment and electronic devices reportedly recovered photos and a video showing sexual activity involving the victim and one defendant, with metadata placing some images at the home on May 26.
- Angeline Marie Olson was charged May 29 with first-degree criminal sexual conduct and soliciting a child while Andrew Donald Olson was charged with multiple counts of possessing child sexual abuse material and soliciting a child; both are in custody and have court dates scheduled.
- Prosecutors are relying on forensic device evidence and the sequence of witness reports to build the case in Washington County court, and the investigation and prosecution remain active rather than resolved.
