WASHINGTON COUNTY, Tenn. (WVLT) – A Washington County middle school teacher has been indicted on federal child pornography charges.
Officials with the US Department of Justice said the indictment was handed down against Anthony Kent Holcombe, 43 of Jonesborough on April 15th. It charges him with distribution, receipt, and possession of child pornography.
Holcombe has since resigned his post as a Title I reading teacher and track coach at Jonesborough Middle School.
The investigation was conducted by the Washington County Sheriff’s Office, Tennessee Sheriff’s Department Criminal Investigation Division and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The DOJ hasn’t said what evidence was in the case.
