HARRIS COUNTY, Texas – A Humble-area teacher, Boy Scout leader and swim instructor is charged with promotion/procession of child pornography, according to Harris County Constable Pct. 4.
Joshua Janecka was arrested after a search warrant was carried out at his home on Wednesday. Officials say Janecka had been electrically storing and sharing illegal images.
Pct. 4 investigators say Janecka was employed as a music teacher for an elementary school in Dayton ISD at the time of his arrest. He’s also believed to be a scout leader and a swim instructor.
Officials went to his school to confiscate his computer there as part of the investigation.
Investigators say he had an “abundant” number of images and videos of young children being sexually exploited. Authorities are reviewing the evidence to see if any of the young victims are local.
He now faces five counts of possession of child pornography and one count of promotion of child pornography. He remained in jail as of Thursday morning.
