Federal prosecutors say a Brighton High School physics teacher has been arrested for receipt and possession of child porn. A complaint filed against 44-year-old Louis Carusone of Webster says the teacher shared video and images containing child porn via an online file-sharing network.
Investigators searched Carusone’s home on October 21st following an undercover officer downloading files shared from his IP address. They seized a number of electronic devices and found 11 videos Carusone appeared to have recorded between August and October. They included images of minors and adults wearing bathing suits at a waterpark and other locations. They also recovered more than 2,000 images of child porn.
Carusone was in federal court on Thursday and released with an electronic monitoring bracelet.
The Brighton Central School District said he will not be returning in any capacity and has placed him on leave.
