58-year-old Madison school teacher was charged with four felonies Friday for exchanging sexually explicit messages and images with a 15-year-old Texas girl, according to a criminal complaint in Dane County Circuit Court.
David C. Fawcett, of Madison, faces one count of sexual exploitation of a child and three counts of possession of child pornography for the messages he shared over Snapchat between mid-June and late August, the complaint says.
Fawcett, who has no prior criminal record in Wisconsin, was arrested Wednesday at his home on the Near East Side and given a signature bond Friday during an initial court hearing, meaning he is not required to post any money to be released before trial. As a condition of his bail, he is barred from social media and cannot have any unsupervised contact with minors.
