Middle School Teacher Convicted on Child Porn Charges

Jurors in Alabama have convicted a middle school teacher on child pornography charges.  Eighth-grade science teacher Jeremiah Hunter was convicted in Mobile after just 10 minutes of deliberations.  Prosecutors claimed the one-time teacher of the year at Hankins Middle School sexted with multiple boys.  Hunter claimed he was only investigating suspicions that students were sending nude photos to each other.
