Formal charges have been filed against a Little Rock man who was a former teacher in the Sheridan School District who is accused of computer child pornography and possessing sexually explicit conduct involving a child.
35th Judicial District Prosecuting Attorney Spencer Singleton charged David Brent Miller, 38, following an investigation by the Union County Sheriff’s Department that began when investigators were contacted by the parent of a 15-year-old boy on Oct. 9. The parent told the investigators that Miler had been sending sexually explicit messages, videos and photos through a social media app.
An investigator, with the consent of the parents, logged into the social media app and posed as the juvenile to communicate with Miller. The investigator reported receiving photographs and videos of a sexually explicit nature from Miller.
At a court hearing in Union County District Court on Oct. 23, Judge Jack Barker found probable cause to charge Miller with one count of pandering or possessing visual or print medium depicting sexually explicit conduct involving a child, a Class C felony, and one count of Computer Child Pornography, a Class B felony.
His bond was set at $150,000 cash or qualified securities, he was ordered to have no contact with minors, wear an ankle monitor, and have a 6 p.m. curfew.
Miller formerly taught choir in the Sheridan School District and told the court he would hire his own attorney.
