A Mendocino College professor was arrested this week for allegedly engaging in a sexual relationship with a student that reportedly began when she was 13-years-old, the Ukiah Police Department reported.
According to the UPD, in September of 2025 it was referred a case by the Mendocino County Sheriff’s Office “regarding a possible unlawful sexual relationship between a professor at the Mendocino College and an underage female student.”
During its subsequent investigation, the UPD reports confirming that the suspect, identified as Jason C. Davis, 54, of Ukiah, who was employed at the time as an English professor at Mendocino College, “had been in dating relationship with a student, (and that) Davis was the subject of a civil suit in the Superior Court of San Francisco, in which two former students had accused Davis of sexual abuse.”
After obtaining search warrants for his home and electronic devices, the UPD reports confirming that “Davis had been in a sexual dating relationship and cohabitating with a former student that was 15-years-old.” The UPD also reports finding “photographs and videos on Davis’ electronic devices that confirmed that the sexual relationship began when the child was 13-years-old.”
On Nov. 20, the UPD reports that a Mendocino County Superior Court Judge “signed an arrest warrant for Davis’ arrest for five felony charges involving sexual abuse of a minor, with multiple special allegations based on the age of the victim,” then later that day officers arrested him.
Davis was then booked into Mendocino County Jail on suspicion of six felonies including lewd or lascivious acts with a child under 14, unlawful sexual intercourse with an underage female, and possession of material depicting sexual conduct of a person under 18. Davis was held under $1 million bail.
When asked for comment regarding the arrest of Davis and his current employment status, Mendocino College released a statement reporting that while he has been placed on administrative leave, he is also “presumed innocent until proven guilty.”
