Pompey's family appeared in court, appearing emotional as the judge decided his bond. Pompey appeared on a screen, calm and collected. 

Pompey's lawyer said Pompey's family is committed to helping him through this. 

"We've already identified a few counseling options for him," he said. "We plan to get him involved with counseling right away."

Pompey is linked to at least three secret peeping incidents between Feb. 16 and March 2. At least one of the incidents happened at Wakefield High School, where Pompey was a student.

He has since been removed from Wakefield and is currently enrolled in SCORE B, a virtual blended learning opportunity for students who have been reassigned from their base school for violating the Wake County School's discipline policy.

According to court documents, Pompey "used a cell phone to make a video recording the victim by placing the cell phone underneath her skirt and pointing the camera up to her private area without her knowledge while she was teaching in a school classroom."

WRAL News asked the Wake County School District if this could prompt a policy change to protect teachers. 

The district's current policy requires students to turn off and put away their cell phones while in class, which is in line with other North Carolina counties designated by state law. 

A spokesperson for the district sent a statement to WRAL News.

"At this point, law enforcement conducted the investigation and we do not yet have all of the information. It would be premature to speculate about policy changes tied to this specific case. What I can share is that we have clear expectations for student conduct and device use, and when those expectations are violated, we take swift action."

Pompey is forbidden from going back to Wakefield High School, per the judge. He will be due back in Wake County court on May 19.
