According to CBS 12 in Providence, a former special education teacher at a Massachusetts high school has pleaded guilty to having child pornography on his laptop. Foxborough High School teacher Thomas Davis pleaded guilty in federal court in Boston on Wednesday to possession of child pornography. Police executed a search warrant at Davis’ Mansfield home in August of 2021 where a laptop belonging to Davis was seized. Approximately 40 images of child pornography were revealed on the laptop and a forensic analysis revealed additional child pornography on the device. The investigation began after the FBI received a tip that Davis had shown someone a video allegedly depicting him having sex with a student which Davis denied to investigators and was not charged.

Davis is scheduled to be sentenced on May 18 when he faces a maximum of 40 years in prison.
