John D. Stelmack, 60, who had been working this school year as principal of Scott Lake Elementary in Lakeland, Fla., was arrested Friday after police reported finding five pornographic photos involving children in a briefcase in his school office.
The images involved digital photos of two school girls carefully superimposed over photos of young-looking, nude adult women, according to Sheriff Grady Judd of Polk County, Fla.
[...]
The original photos of the girls were found on Stelmack’s computers, and they appear to be harmless-looking snapshots, likely taken at the schools, Judd said.
Authorities believe Stelmack used a digital photo editing program to superimpose the faces of the girls on top of the nude bodies.
Authorities do not believe that the girls were victimized physically in any way.
[...]
Stelmack was charged with five counts of possessing child pornography.
“This is the first one we’ve seen like this,†Judd said of the unusual, superimposed photos. “We certainly believe†that they constitute child pornography, even though the children weren’t actually nude.
“When you take a child’s image and superimpose it onto a nude body, you’ve made child pornography in our estimation,†Judd said
