Former Greensboro Firefighter Arrested on Child Porn Charges, Police Say

Police say Joshua Hall, who resigned October 11, was charged with 10 counts of "sexual exploitation permit minor to engage in sex."

GREENSBORO, N.C. — A former Greensboro firefighter is accused of storing child pornography on a city-owned computer. Greensboro Police say Joshua Hall was arrested Wednesday and charged with 10 counts of "sexual exploitation permit minor to engage in sex." He has since bonded out of jail. 

According to court documents, a complaint was filed against Hall for possessing child porn. Greensboro Fire officials say Hall resigned from his role at Station 41 with the department on October 11. 

They directed all further questions to Assistant City Manager Nathaniel Davis. WFMY News 2 asked Davis about how this might've fallen through the cracks.

He says the City has technology on all devices used by employees that check by the Information and Technology department to ensure proper use.

"But as we all know, with technology today, and the way information is shared and the way information is exchanged, there are a number of ways around those systems," Davis said.
