Two online tipsters told state police that Timothy Holt, 44, of Baldwin, sent child pornography over the Internet last month.
Cops seized the divorced father’s computer and allegedly found nine videos and pictures depicting sexually explicit images of children.
Holt, who pleaded not guilty to felony child-pornography raps on Friday, worked as a third-grade teacher’s assistant at the Birch Elementary School in Merrick and taught Earth science at Yeshiva Chofetz Chaim and Yeshiva Tiferes Torah.
“We are shocked and saddened by these charges,” said a Yeshiva Chofetz representative who would not give his name.
State Police Inspector Carlos Ramos said there was no evidence that Holt had inappropriate contact with any of his students but he’s been fired from all three school
That’s what’s called Chazir flu!
That’s why it’s so important to have mandatory fingerprinting and background checks for all yeshiva employees. We have no idea who is teaching our children and who has access to them on a daily basis, r”l.
“Holt, who pleaded not guilty to felony child-pornography raps on Friday, worked as a third-grade teacher’s assistant at the Birch Elementary School in Merrick……..”

“limud zechus” “dan likaf zechus” yadda yadda. Come on Agudah, help this poor godol with his defense!

Shmuck. Didn’t he know you go to jail for stuff like that if you aren’t well connected?
No money, no yichus, no friends amongst the ‘askunim. He’s going to sit for a long time.
“””Cops seized the divorced father’s computer and allegedly found nine videos and pictures depicting sexually explicit images of children.””” Just wondering is there any ongoing battle over child custody for his kids?????
Fortunately, the charges here are not for abuse. They are for having pictures of child porn. Boys from one of these schools have stated that he did not do anything inapproriate in the classroom environment. This was stictly an “after school activity”. He is still a danger to society, but at least the boys have not been harmed.
This man was a science teacher, not a rebbe, and he is not Jewish.
