A U.S. Border Patrol agent is accused of exchanging nude photos with a 15-year-old girl via email, the El Paso Times reports.
Agent Abel Michael Quiroz, 26, was arrested Tuesday on child pornography charges after a search warrant was executed at his La Cruce home.
The search allegedly turned up sexually explicit conversations, along with shared nude photos of each other.
“There is no evidence suggesting that Quiroz’s alleged criminal activities were conducted with government-owned equipment or technology,” the U.S. Attorney’s Office said in a news release.
