A former Mamaroneck school teacher was arrested Friday, accused of buying mail-order child pornography which he had delivered to the school and then took home.

Lyle Kamlet, 62, of Mount Vernon, is charged in a federal complaint with single counts of receiving child pornography and possessing child pornography. His arrest came after an investigation by the U.S. Attorney’s Office and U.S Postal Service inspectors.

Authorities say that, from 2008 through 2010, Kamlet ordered a number of kiddie porn DVDs, some of which he had sent to the school where he had been employed. The six-page complaint does not say which school that is, only that it’s in Mamaroneck.

“This arrest was the result of a search of his house that occurred a year and a half ago,” Kamlet’s lawyer, James Roth, said Monday. “We are going to vigorously contest these charges in court.”
