Michael P. Widger, 36, of Erie, Pennsylvania a teacher at Grandview Elementary School has been arrested and charged with possessing child pornography after police allegedly found 55 images on the computer he used at school.

Widger allegedly admitted to police that he would sometimes use the school computer for personal purposes.

Reportedly when police asked him why he did an Internet search for the terms “transgender” and “she-male,” Widger allegedly told investigators that a transgender parent was coming to the school for a meeting and he wanted to send a joke about it to other faculty members.

Widger was first suspended and then fired by the school system on the basis of violating the school district’s computer-use policy. Reportedly school administrator’s action in this regard was not related to the criminal charges against Widger.
