The Clymer School Board has accepted the resignation of a teacher who faces federal charges of possession of child pornography.
The Post-Journal says the school board accepted the resignation of its agriculture teacher, 60-year-old Scott Aikens, during a special meeting Monday.
In mid-September federal officials with the Department of Homeland Security arrested and charged Aikens with possession of child pornography. He’s accused of visiting a foreign website that hosted images of child pornography, where he allegedly made more than a dozen comments while also allegedly downloading images from the site onto his home computer.
If convicted, the criminal charge carries a mandatory penalty of 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine.
