Former North Cross teacher found guilty in federal court

An ex-teacher at North Cross School in Roanoke County, charged with trying to have a week long sex vacation with an underage boy in Miami, has been found guilty of the crime. 

According to court documents, Thomas Keelan and the boy had been seeing each other for years in Florida, and once Keelan moved to Virginia, he tried to set up another meeting.

Keelan brought a bag of bondage and sex toys, including whips and rope to a motel room where he was picked up by authorities.

He'll be sentenced in the spring.
