Overview
- Elliott, 26, surrendered to the Collin County Jail after Celina police obtained a new warrant tied to locker-room witness accounts, and jail records show no bond set for the second-degree felony.
- He was first arrested in early October and charged with invasive visual recording and possession or promotion of child pornography after students reported locker-room recording.
- An October warrant states investigators recovered 12 images from Elliott’s phone that were described as meeting the legal criteria for child pornography and showed boys in various states of undress.
- Parents have filed lawsuits alleging the district ignored earlier misconduct complaints and moved Elliott from the high school to the middle school, with plaintiffs’ attorneys reporting dozens of potential victims.
- The Texas Education Agency has opened an investigation into Celina ISD, and other employees have been sidelined or arrested in separate incidents, including two teachers accused of child endangerment.
