According to the Maryland State Police Department, they arrested the Wicomico County man Wednesday. They charged him with two counts of distribution of child pornography, two counts of possession of child pornography, two counts of contributing to the condition of a child and two counts of sexual abuse of a minor. Currently, he is being held in the Wicomico County Detention Center without bail.

Why was he arrested?
