Former Fair Oaks Fire Chief Nathan Turner and his wife, Stephanie Ann Turner, are facing severe legal backlash as warrants have been issued for their alleged indecent and illicit activities involving a minor. According to WTAE, the couple has been charged with corruption of minors, unlawful contact with a minor, indecent exposure, harassment, and criminal conspiracy.
The investigation came to light through a separate theft inquiry related to the Sewickley Water Authority. Nathan Turner, who was previously employed there, had his phone seized by the Sewickley Borough police, where it revealed incriminating evidence of the couple's communication about the alleged criminal behavior. One excerpt from the seized texts showed Nathan writing, "You literally took your pants off in front of him," with Stephanie reportedly replying, "Yes, I did." This conversation, as WPXI points out, referred to a 14-year-old boy who was a junior firefighter at Nathan Turner's former department, and someone with whom the Turner's were said to have a parental relationship.
The couple's alleged conduct, said to have taken a disturbing turn between the winter of 2023 and the summer of 2024, has shocked the community. Documents show that the boy was subjected to inappropriate comments about his appearance, and Stephanie Turner even discussed having sexual relations with the boy after he became of age. The victim recounted a particularly disturbing incident where Stephanie Turner allegedly exited the bathroom without a shirt or bra and later exposed herself to the boy by pulling down her pants.
As the case continues, people in Fair Oaks and across Allegheny County are reacting strongly. Nathan and Stephanie Turner are now dealing with the full weight of the legal system.
