Child porn investigation: Union Grove school administrator pleads not guilty

Superintendent facing charges of possession of child porn entered a not guilty plea and waived his preliminary hearing this morning. Our Racine Kenosha County reporter Ben Hanson says the case has launched another investigation to learn exactly what law enforcement officials gave him possible inside information. We have learned a lot about this case through search warrants and the criminal complaint when charges were filed, but there are still many unanswered questions. One of the biggest ones, who told Johnson about the investigation before investigators were assigned to the case? In the criminal complaint, it says Johnson admitted he talked with someone from the Racine County Sheriff's Office on October 22nd. This happened after school in his office, the day after the anonymous letter was sent out that triggered this entire investigation. When Johnson was asked why he didn't mention that interaction earlier to law enforcement, he said he forgot. Citing a pending investigation, both the Racine and Kenosha County Sheriff's Offices declined to identify this employee from the Racine County Sheriff's Office. Does Johnson have anything he would like to say directly to Union Grove families who have a lot of questions and are kind of also in the same boat as you of waiting to see how things play out? What he says is he is presumed innocent and he has entered a plea of not guilty. Another big question, was the child porn found on Johnson's phone of his past and or former students? In the criminal complaint, it says in the anonymous letter, the author said, quote, I saw his text messages from what I think are past students or current students that are inappropriate. There are some pictures as well. The Kenosha County Sheriff's Office didn't get back to me on that question. They're the office leading this investigation because the Racine County Sheriff's Office handed it off to them, citing a conflict of interest. Johnson posted his $250,000 bail and is now out of custody. He has a no-contact order with minors and cannot use any devices with internet capability.

Yeah, if your email just didn't work at all, still.
