A Dutchess County teacher is accused of having explicit online conversations with minors.

The FBI is now asking other potential victims to come forward.

Daniel Monarchi, 26, was arrested last summer for child exploitation.

Federal prosecutors say he enticed a 14-year-old girl into sexual activity online.

He was a special education teacher at a middle school in Dutchess County.

FBI officials believe he also targeted other girls.

Anyone with information should call the FBI at (800) 225-5324
