Former Illinois State Rep. Keith Farnham was charged Monday with possession of child pornography.
According to a criminal complaint filed in U.S. District Court in Chicago, two child pornography videos were found on a computer seized from his Elgin office in March.
Farnham, 66, has not been arrested, but is expected to appear in court Wednesday to answer to the charges.
Farnham resigned from his position on March 19 citing health issues, a day after winning the primary running unopposed.
Federal investigators searched Farnham's office on March 19 and confiscated several computers and electronic storage devices which they say contained child porn images, including a computer labeled "Property of the State of Illinois House of Representatives." (more...)
