MONROE, Mich. – A 52-year-old former substitute teacher arraigned on child pornography charges last week now faces three additional federal charges.
David William Huntley is charged with five counts of possession of sexually abusive material of children and three federal charges of possession, receipt and distribution of child pornography. He is now in the custody of the U.S. Marshals.

Police took multiple computers from Huntley and searched through them Friday morning. Investigators said they found a substantial amount of child pornography in the man's home. He was arraigned Friday afternoon and was being held at the Monroe County Jail on a $1 million cash bond before being handed over to the feds.
According to the federal complaint against Huntley, he told federal investigators he is sexually attracted to children who have not yet matured.
Huntley was a substitute teacher in several Monroe County school districts from 2000-2003 (see list of schools below). He was removed from the substitute management system in August 2003 after being fired for not keeping control in his classroom. That prevented him from substituting again in all Monroe County public schools, according to a spokesman from the Monroe County Intermediate School District (MCISD). He has never been employed or substituted at the MCISD.
Huntley was most recently working at a fast food restaurant.
Police said that during an interview Huntley admitted to having sexual contact with numerous children spanning over decades, including opportunistic assaults on complete strangers in public places.
Local 4 spoke with Huntley outside court on Friday. He said he tried not to touch Monroe-area kids in a sexual manner.
"I have tried not to be abuse any (kids)," he said. "I may have scared them."
