William Buzzell, 46. / Wood County jail

BOWLING GREEN -- A former Rossford elementary school principal was found guilty of downloading and sharing child pornography on his home computer on Monday.

William Buzzell, 46, pleaded no contest to three counts of pandering sexually-oriented material and one count of possession of criminal tools.

According to the Sentinel-Tribune, assistant prosecutor Heather Baker is recommending Buzzell serve four years in prison for the first two counts, followed by five years of community control for the other two.

Buzzell was the principal of Glenwood Elementary School for a decade before his arrest last year. He faces sentencing on April 19.
