Joseph Gannon, an 8th grade science teacher at Nathanael Greene Middle School in Providence, Rhode Island, is facing charges of first-degree sexual assaults and possession of child pornography.
We know there is a strong link between the possession of child sexual abuse materials and sexual abuse.
Possessing child sexual abuse materials is not only a serious crime but also strongly linked to committing sexual abuse. Research shows those who share these materials are more likely to engage in actual acts of abuse. The consumption of such content can normalize and reinforce harmful behaviors. This connection underscores the importance of addressing the demand for these materials and the potential risk these individuals pose to children. Civil legal action against those caught with child sexual abuse materials is a critical step in preventing further abuse and protecting vulnerable children from harm.
If Gannon impacted your children, we can help.
