Former Illinois State Rep. Keith Farnham (D) was charged “with using both personal and state-owned computers to trade hundreds of images and videos depicting child pornography and engage in graphic online chats in which he allegedly bragged about sexually molesting a 6-year-old girl,” the Chicago Tribune reports.
When he resigned his seat last month, Farnham said he was stepping down due to serious health concerns.
