Vigilant Crimebusters At Best Buy's Geek Squad Chalk Up Another Collar

Chalk up another collar for the Geek Squad.

A Florida middle school teacher is facing child porn charges after illicit images were found on a laptop that he dropped off for repair at a Best Buy near his Florida residence.

William Crawford, 69, was arrested yesterday on ten counts of possession of child pornography. He subsequently resigned from his job at John Long Middle School, where he taught science.

According to a criminal complaint, Crawford last year brought his Toshiba Satellite into a Tampa Bay-area Best Buy for repair. While working on the computer, a Geek Squad technician “observed images consistent with child pornography,” prompting store officials to alert cops.

A police search of the computer revealed “numerous files that were in fact child pornography.” After being read his rights, Crawford reportedly “admitted to having illegal images on his computer.”

Seen above, Crawford is scheduled to make an initial court appearance this morning.
