Antony Woody, 31, was charged with possession of child porn Friday.
The investigation began in early March when the FBI arrested a man in Boston.
The federal agency said the investigation revealed the suspect and Woody exchanged graphic sexual images of children.

Thornton said Woody moved out two weeks prior because of a dispute, but he left behind some of his belongings.
She describes him as quiet and someone who kept to himself.
“It was a big shock that’s for sure,” Thornton said.
Investigators arrested Woody at work where detectives said they found numerous files of pornography on his cellphone.
