Nassau police accused a Delaware man of sending child porn and trying to meet a person he believed was a minor who he was talking with online between February and April. 
James Peterson, 36, of Wilmington, Delaware, had numerous online conversations with a person he believed to be a 14-year-old but was actually a detective with the Internet Child Exploitation Section.

A Nassau County grand jury indicted him on 28 counts on Oct. 30. He was charged with 10 counts of attempted disseminating indecent material to a minor, 10 counts of attempted endangering the welfare of a child, two counts of possessing a sexual performance of a child, two counts of possessing an obscene sexual performance of a child, two counts of promoting a sexual performance of a child and two counts of promoting obscene sexual performance of a child.
