Danville Middle School Teacher Pleads Not Guilty To Child Porn Possession

MARTINEZ (CBS SF) -- A Danville middle school teacher pleaded not guilty in a Martinez courtroom Tuesday to charges of possessing more than 600 videos and images of child pornography.

Mitchell Wolf, 58, entered the not guilty plea to a charge of aggravated child pornography possession.

Dressed in a suit and tie, Wolf appeared in court out of custody Tuesday and quickly left the courtroom with his attorney after the brief hearing.

Wolf was arrested at his Danville home on Aug. 22 after members of the Silicon Valley Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force served a search warrant there.

He was taken to county jail in Martinez and later released on bail.

The Danville resident has taught math at Diablo Vista Middle School for 12 years, according to the San Ramon Valley Unified School District.

Police said they are looking into the possibility of local victims and are asking anyone with information about the case to call Danville police Sgt. Jason Haynes at (925) 314-3700 or email him at jhaynes@danville.ca.gov.
