Ex-TSA Employee Faces Additional Child Porn Charges

A former Transportation Security Administration employee arrested by Londonderry Police in June after more than 1,000 images of child sexual abuse and pornography were found on his laptop computer and thumb drives was indicted this month on five new charges.

Miguel Angel Quinones, 38, of 67 Whittemore Ave., Manchester was indicted in November by a Rockingham County Superior Court grand jury on three counts of possession of child sexual abuse images and two counts of attempted possession of child sexual abuse images. Quinones had been indicted back in September on 20 counts of possession and attempted possession of child pornography.

Londonderry Police were initially notified by the Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force in January that Quinones was being investigated for possession of child pornography. He voluntarily turned over his personal computer and three USB thumb drives to ICAC investigators. The laptop and thumb drives were located in Londonderry at the Manchester-Boston Regional Airport in his personal, employment locker. Quinones was then an employee of the Transportation Security Administration.

ICAC asked Londonderry Police to apply for a search warrant for the computer and thumb drives, and assisted with the forensic search once the warrant was approved. The forensic search found more than 1,000 images and one video contained what appeared to be child sexual abuse and pornography.
