Former elementary teacher guilty in porn case

HOUSTON

Prosecutors say 53-year-old Juan Antonio Villarreal pleaded guilty Tuesday to distribution and possession of child pornography.

A Beaumont police officer investigating online child porn traced several downloads to a computer used by Villarreal, whose home was searched last August. Investigators recovered more than 1,700 images and videos.

Villarreal taught third-graders prior to his arrest. He remains in custody pending sentencing in May.
