Indicted Teacher Found Dead

Blake Harris

A former Carlisle ISD teacher, Blake Harris, had over 100 images and videos depicting underage male and female children in explicit sexual activity. Marion County at Jefferson arrested Harris on child pornography charges in 2020, and now the sheriff’s office says Haris committed suicide. After his indictment, Marion County expected Harris to turn himself in last Monday. Instead, a game warden found his body using a drone Tuesday night in the woods near US-59 off FM 2208.
