DOOR COUNTY, WI (WTAQ) – A 58-year-old computer technician for the Green Bay Area Public School District faces one count of Possessing Child Pornography.
Prosectuors say authorities were tipped to Matthew Vanboesschoten’s online activity by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children regarding an inappropriate image of a 5-7 year old girl and executed a search warrant at his Brussels home in June.
Vanboesschoten allegedly admitted to viewing up to 50 inappropriate images on the file sharing website Chatstep, saying he saved 6-10 of those images on a personal laptop that used to be property of the school district.
The 58-year-old also claims that he never physically acted on his thoughts of having sex with children or took pornographic images/videos of minors.
Vanboesschoten is due back in court on November 7 for a status hearing.
