A Hall County school bus driver and part-time preacher arrested last week on child pornography charges confessed to an FBI agent, saying he had “a sickness,” the agent testified Monday.

A federal magistrate judge granted a $50,000 bond Monday for John Cooper Spinks, 41. Spinks must wear an electronic monitor and will only be allowed to leave his Oakwood home for a few hours twice a week, U.S.District Magistrate Susan Cole ordered. Spinks’ 7-year-old daughter will live elsewhere and Spinks can only see her during supervised visits.

Spinks will remain in federal custody until Wednesday.
