Teacher's computer showed porn to students

CHANDLER, Ariz., Oct. 25 (UPI) -- A Chandler, Ariz., high school teacher is under investigation after students said they saw pornographic images on his computer.

Hendrix Junior High School students said the teacher had left the classroom with his computer hooked up to an overhead projector, and pornographic images began appearing on the screen shortly after his exit, KPHO-TV, Phoenix, reported Thursday.

"One kid started laughing, showed another, and then the whole class started laughing," said ninth-grader Brandon Meyer.

The teacher has been assigned to a non-classroom position while Chandler police and school officials investigate the incident.

The school informed parents of the situation in a letter sent home with students.

"As a parent, I'm concerned, but I'm not going to jump to conclusions. I'm not sure if this was a shared computer, that kind of thing," said parent Michael Zoemisch.

"If they find him guilty, he should be fired. No doubt about it," parent Steve Taylor said.
