A former teacher
and wrestling coach for Sandy Creek High School has pled guilty to public
indecency and other charges stemming from his arrest on campus in November
for using his classroom computer to display a "sex act" via
the Internet.
Damian T. Belvedere,
44, of Sharpsburg was sentenced May 22 to 15 days in jail followed by
60 days on house arrest where he will only be allowed to go to counseling,
work and the post office. Fayette County State Court Judge Fletcher Sams
also ordered Belvedere on three years probation and $3,000 in fines.
Belvedere pled
guilty to all three charges against him, including public indecency and
two counts of distributing obscene materials. No students witnessed the
incident, which was seen by two women in south Georgia whom Belvedere
had conversed with online, police said. Police unlocked the classroom
door and one detective witnessed the incident immediately afterwards.
The witnesses,
who are both adults, had notified police of Belvedere's conduct after
noticing what appeared to be a classroom in the background.
Police said
the computer indicated Belvedere would enter an adult chat room on a daily
basis.
