Following the arrest of a Catholic grade school teacher who allegedly used photos of students to digitally create pornography that was distributed to others, a lawsuit against the archdiocese was filed.

Between the end of March 2022 and the beginning of February 2024, a 39-year-old man who taught seventh and eighth-grade religion classes at St. Stephen Martyr Catholic School in Louisville, Kentucky, was allegedly creating pornographic pictures of students. According to reports, he used yearbook photos that were taken at the school and manipulated the images by combining them with pornographic material. The man also allegedly distributed the faux photos of the kids online.

The authorities learned about the situation and opened an investigation. They reportedly discovered that the IP address used to share the pornographic images matched the one the teacher was using. It was reported that undercover agents working on the case received hundreds of pictures from the account associated with the suspect. On February 2, the man was arrested for the allegations.
