The Associated Press is reporting that 67-year-old Tommy Lewis Jr., a long-time educator in Northern Arizona, recently resigned as Coconino County's Superintendent of Schools after officials discovered pornographic images on his work-issued computer.
FLAGSTAFF A longtime educator whose career included high-profile jobs on the Navajo Nation resigned from his latest post as an Arizona county schools superintendent after officials discovered pornographic images on his work-issued computer, according to records obtained by The Associated Press.
Coconino County announced the resignation of Tommy Lewis Jr., 67, as its superintendent of schools in late January with a two-sentence statement that cited personal reasons. A county spokesman later confirmed Lewis was under investigation for potential criminal activity in response to questions from the AP.
While the images found on Lewis computer violated county policy, the investigation in Arizona ended with no charges. The Yavapai County Sheriff s Office, which took the case after Coconino cited a conflict of interest, said none of the material involved the exploitation of children.
