NJ woman arrested after teaching in Japan

Natasha Rivas, 23, of North Bergen, is charged with distribution of child sexual abuse materials, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office. If convicted, she faces between five and 20 years in prison.

Court documents revealed on Friday said Rivas sent explicit images and videos of children to Scott Graham, of Worcester, between April and December of 2024. Rivas was born in Worcester, according to the profile.

A profile piece from Clark University said Rivas graduated from the college in Worcester in 2024 and then taught language in Osaka, Japan. She returned from Japan in February 2025.

Graham's home was searched by investigators on Jan. 15, and law enforcement searched his iPad.

They found several illicit videos depicting children sent by Rivas, the criminal complaint said. Some videos were from Rivas's family vacation at a hotel in Ridgefield Park, documents said.
