Allentown, PENNSYLVANIA

Jan 10, 2007 - Keith Snyder, 55, a teacher at Southern Lehigh High School, was found dead in his home after he failed to appear court for the third day of his trial. (No cause of death known yet.)

Arrested in 2005, he was charged with seven counts of corruption of minors and one count each of solicitation of a minor to pose nude and tampering with evidence.

He pleaded guilty in August to three counts of corruption of minors, and all other charges were dropped as part of the plea agreement. He withdrew the plea in October and requested a trial.

Jan 11 - It appears to be a suicide. He was found dead in a car idling in his garage.
Jan 16 - Police have determined it was a suicide. Snyder left a notebook for police to find with additional e-mail they hadn't known about. They think he operated for years without being caught.
