Joshua Jeremaine Kincade, 44, of Neches, was arrested on April 9 for showing porn to Junior High students (courtesy KTRE).
Houston County, TX:
Two female students filed a complaint with the Grapeland ISD back in Feb. alleging Coach Joshua Kincade displayed a naked man on his cellphone during theater class. They were approached again by Kincade and told not to tell anyone. For fear of reprisal, the students did not report the incident to school administrators until Kincade's dismissal for a separate cause. A warrant for Kincade's arrest was obtain March 26 and he was booked on a $10,000 bond for displaying harmful material to a minor. Not so ironically 10 years ago, Joshua Kincade’s home was raided on previous child porn charges.

In typical guilty East Texas double-speak, Grapeland ISD superintendent David Maass stated, “Mr. Kinkade [sic] was not employed with the District when the allegations leading to the current criminal charges were discovered…” (Source: Former Grapeland ISD employee arrested over inappropriate photo, KTRE)
DUH…but Coach KINCADE was employed with the school district when he allegedly showed his students the explicit photos on his phone DURING CLASS. And Mr. Kincade was hired by the Grapeland ISD even though he had be charged in neighboring Anderson County with possession of child pornography back in 2013. Of course East Texas media pretends to not make the connection to what they previously reported, either.

A Neches Independent School District board member remained in the Anderson County Jail Thursday after being arrested for possession of child pornography by Anderson County investigators.
According to Sheriff Greg Taylor, officers obtained an arrest warrant for 33-year-old Joshua Jeremaine Kincade late Wednesday, as well as a search warrant for his residence on FM 2267.
“We arrested him this morning and did a search on the residence today,” Taylor said Thursday. “We were able to obtain some evidence during the search.
“We seized a lot of electronic items that will be sent to the lab for evaluation.”
According to the sheriff, investigators were led to Kincade while looking into another case.
“He was in possession of a photograph of a 14-year-old female — on his smart phone,” Taylor said. “This is a serious crime and we will continue to investigate it.”
Kincade is charged with possession of child pornography and remained in jail on a $15,000 bond. Further charges are possible for the suspect, pending results of lab evaluations.
“We will have to wait and see,” Taylor said.
349th State District Judge Pam Foster Fletcher signed the warrants for the suspect’s arrest and search of his residence. ACSO’s Ryan Tolliver is the lead investigator on the case.
According to Herald-Press records, Kincade was elected to the Neches ISD school board in November 2012.
