CHARGED: West Allis school bus driver accused of possessing child porn
WEST ALLIS (WITI) -- A West Allis school bus driver has been charged, accused of possessing child pornography.53-year-old William Casper faces two counts of possession of child pornography.A criminal complaint filed against Casper says special agents with the Wisconsin DOJ, assigned to a task force investigating internet crimes against children discovered a computer or internet-capable device offering to participate in the distribution of known child pornography over a peer-to-peer file sharing network.The computer's IP address was traced to a home in West Allis, owned by William Casper.Agents performed surveillance on that residence, and then a search warrant was obtained and executed on August 20th -- during which law enforcement officials seized computers and non-commercial discs.The complaint against Casper says a laptop computer found in the home was analyzed by a task force agent and discovered suspected child pornography in the form of two video files.The complaint against Casper says when law enforcement officials executed the search warrant, Casper himself answered the door and verbally identified himself as William Casper.During an initial interview with law enforcement officials, Casper told them he has never downloaded movies from the internet -- saying he doesn't visit websites due to a fear of getting a virus, according to the complaint.
