A former Homer-Center High School teacher pleaded guilty to child pornography charges yesterday in Westmoreland County Court.
Court documents show 33-year-old Charles Kirkland from the Derry Township side of Blairsville was facing two counts of child pornography possession, dissemination of photos or film of child sex acts and criminal use of a communications facility in connection with an investigation in December of 2022. Kirkland was a teacher in Homer-Center starting in 2016, and he resigned shortly after his arrest.
Kirkland pleaded guilty to the two child porn possession charges, while the others were dismissed. Kirkland remains free on $10,000 bond. He will be sentenced in about three months by Common Pleas Court Judge Christopher Feliciani.
