Monroe High School ex-psychologist sentenced for texting girls for sex

MONROE — A King County judge sentenced a former Monroe High School psychologist last week for texting who he believed were minors and trying to have sex with them.

In June 2021, Lance Egli, 51, started talking to a user on a dating application whose age was listed as 19. She repeatedly told him she was actually 14. But the account wasn’t a 14-year-old girl — it was a Redmond police detective who used age-adjusted photos of herself to make her look like a teenager. Egli later texted similar messages to another detective who was posing as a 15-year-old girl.

King County Superior Court Judge Dave Keenan gave Lance Egli three months in jail on July 14.

Egli was a psychologist at the high school since 2004, and was also the special education coordinator.
