A former elementary school volunteer who was already facing several charges related to allegedly producing child pornography was indicted Monday on two additional sex charges by a federal grand jury, the Washington Post reports.

Deonte Carraway, 23, of Glenarden, Md., is now facing 15 federal counts of sexual exploitation of a minor to produce child pornography, including material involving students as young as 9.

According to the Post, the additional charges stem from an additional child as well as from video that was already known to county investigators and does not increase the number of known alleged victims.
