ELIZABETHTOWN, Ky. (AP) - A Kentucky high school principal has pleaded not guilty to 63 felony charges related to child pornography as investigators review images to identify victims.

Stephen Kyle Goodlett was fired as the LaRue County High School principal five days after his Oct. 13 arrest at his home in Elizabethtown. The News-Enterprise (https://bit.ly/2iaNLSL ) reports that the 36-year-old Goodlett entered the plea Tuesday in Hardin County Circuit Court.

He was indicted on 60 counts of possession and three counts of distribution of matter portraying a sex performance by a minor, with each count punishable by up to five years if convicted.



Prosecutor Teresa Logsdon says investigators are still going over “hundreds, if not thousands, of images” on his electronic devices. State police want to hear from students whose cellphones might have been confiscated at school.
