Teacher pleads guilty to filming students in school bathroom
MURRAY, Ky. – A former teacher at a Kentucky high school admitted to filming students in a bathroom.
Mark Allen Boggess, 54, pleaded guilty Tuesday in Calloway Circuit Court to eight counts of possessing matter portraying a sexual performance by a minor and eight counts of voyeurism, the Murray Ledger & Times reported.
