Twenty-one-year-old Cody John Hammer of Sunset pleaded guilty in second District Court yesterday to third-degree felony attempted sexual exploitation of a minor and class A misdemeanor stealing, destroying or altering public records.
Sentencing was set for August eleventh.
Hammer was accused of stealing pictures of female pupils from teachers' desks and taking printouts of students' names of addresses.
Authorities said Hammer had downloaded child porn using school computers at night. He was caught when one downloaded image was sent to a different printer and was discovered the next day by school personnel.
