Disgusting Video`s
Francis Stephen Glenski, 48, an IT teacher, pleaded guilty in Auckland District Court last week to two charges of filming girls under the age of 16 and one count of possessing objectionable images on his computer.
The Herald on Sunday today reported that suppression orders preventing publication of Glenski’s name, workplace and occupation lapsed after the guilty plea.
It said police had raised questions about whether Avondale College, Glenski’s employer, met its obligations as a caregiver to the international students.
Police raided Glenski’s home in March after being alerted by Avondale College principal Brent Lewis.
A colleague who was fixing Glenski’s laptop had found a file with hundreds of images and films of under-age girls.
Nine of the films were shot last year through a hidden grille and showed two Asian exchange students taking a shower, while a photograph of a neighbour’s young daughter, sitting on a trampoline with her genitals exposed, was also found on the computer.
When police executed a search warrant they found the bathroom at the North Shore address matched the one in the footage, as did the trampoline.
After the police raid, Glenski’s four children were taken into Child Youth and Family care and are now being cared for by their mother in the United States.
Glenski will be sentenced in Auckland District Court in October.
The charge of making child pornography carries a maximum sentence of 10 years’ imprisonment.
Education Ministry guidelines state schools must have “robust” procedures for the selecting and monitoring of homestay carers and residences.
The newspaper reported a statement from Mr Lewis and Avondale College’s board of trustees said the case showed the school’s systems to protect student wellbeing were “rigorous and effective”.
“While the offending did not occur at the school, this matter only came to light because of the checks and balances within our system.”
I think this is sick and wrong for anybody to want to do this. He is a teacher so is dealing with students all the time. I would hate to think what other thing`s he could have done to these girl`s. These girl`s don`t seem much older than me so to think he could do this to friend`s of mine or even me! This is a horrible thing to happen and I hope he get`s charged for it. I hope this doesn`t happen again.
