FRASER (WWJ) – A former teacher in the Fraser School District has been charged in a child pornography case.

Gregory Austin, 32, was a band instructor in the district in 2005 and became a classroom teacher in 2006.

Austin was arrested during a drug transaction in March when Roseville police allegedly discovered a number of images of child pornography on his phone.

According to prosecutors, detectives also found inappropriate non-pornographic images of suspected minors, both male and female, as well as text messages that were sexual in nature that appeared to involve minors, and two pornographic videos, one featuring a minor.
