Trial delayed for former Northwoods teacher accused of child pornography charges

A former Northwoods elementary teacher will not go to trial as planned next week for possession of child pornography.

After a series of motion hearings this week Lucas Aschbrenner had his trial reset for mid-August.

The 46-year-old is facing possible prison time after investigators say they found multiple images on his devices and in online accounts back in 2023.

Online court records don't show a reason for the delay,

Aschbrenner is scheduled to return for a motion hearing in May and a jury status hearing in July.

In the meantime he's free on a 25 thousand dollar cash bond but cannot leave Oneida or Vilas counties without prior approval, and isn't allowed to access the internet.
