A former longtime teacher at a Catholic grade school in Bucks County pleaded guilty Monday in federal court in Philadelphia to receiving and possessing child pornography, U.S. Attorney David Metcalf said.

Richard Adamsky, 66, taught seventh and eighth grades and also served as a sports coach at Nativity of Our Lord Catholic School in Warminster. He had worked at the school for 38 years.

No, of course The Philadelphia Inquirer didn’t include Mr Adamsky’s mugshot, but it is widely available elsewhere.

His sentencing is set for April 14.

Christopher J. Serpico, a lawyer representing Adamsky, said his client faces a mandatory minimum of five years in prison for downloading child pornography.

There’s more at the original. Mr Adamsky faces a maximum sentence of 40 years. Federal prisoners must serve a minimum of 85% of their sentences before becoming eligible for parole, which means he could not possibly get out of prison in less than four years and three months. The Inquirer story did not tell us whether Mr Adamsky was taken immediately to prison.

Mr Serpico is attempting to put together mitigating evidence to keep his client’s sentence as close as possible to the mandatory minimum, and stated that there was no evidence that Mr Adamsky actually abused any children. At least one of the images found in his home included the sexual abuse of a prepubescent child.

I suspect that Mr Adamsky, to use a line by Leroy Jethro Gibbs on NCIS, “will not do well in prison.”
