Search warrant: 22-year-old who posed as White Bear Lake student allegedly received nude images from a student
Authorities say 22‑year‑old Kelvin Luebke (aka "KJ Perry") used a forged foreign birth certificate to enroll at White Bear Lake High School Sept. 3–29, 2025, briefly registering for football under the district’s McKinney‑Vento enrollment rules after presenting documents that initially appeared authentic; a parent who recognized his mugshot on Snapchat helped trigger the probe. A Washington County search warrant alleges Luebke received nude photos from a student and seeks his phone for evidence of possible criminal sexual conduct; he has a prior conviction for sending explicit images to a 15‑year‑old, was arrested on an unrelated warrant and released, and no school‑related charges have been filed to date. District officials say they are cooperating with law enforcement and reviewing enrollment and athletic‑eligibility procedures while state Rep. Elliott Engen has called for the superintendent’s resignation and statewide identity‑verification protocols; Luebke was later assaulted in St. Paul, which is under investigation.
