Ethan Weiner, 29, has been charged with endangering the welfare of a child after authorities said more than 1,000 items were found at his home during a search Thursday. Authorities also seized devices and digital storage media.
The prosecutor's Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, which focuses on the distribution of images showing the sexual exploitation of children, first identified Weiner as a suspect and launched an investigation. He is believed to have obtained images through file-sharing networks.
Weiner was released pending a court date.
