Child pornography found at home of Wake Forest man who threatened schoolchildren

WAKE FOREST, N.C. (WTVD) -- Arthur Vladimir Kochetkov, who's currently facing charges for threatening Wake Forest schoolchildren on Facebook is now being charged with possessing child pornography.

He has been ordered to stay at least 1,000 feet away from any school and have no contact with anyone under age 18.
