A mother of four has been charged with possession of child pornography after police searching her home for drugs found photos of her 6-year-old daughter, authorities said.
Maria Quijano, 38, remained in the Montgomery County Jail on Friday, four days after authorities arrested her at her home in the 1000 block of East Dallas. The U.S. Department of Immigration and Customs Enforcement also is checking Quijano's immigration status, officials said.
Montgomery County sheriff's deputies went to the home on Tuesday with a warrant to search for drugs, said Sgt. David Womack. While looking for narcotics, investigators discovered 11 photos of Quijano's daughter they deemed pornographic. Authorities declined to elaborate, except to say Quijano and the girl's father, Pedro Quijano, were in one of the pictures.
Child Protective Services removed the children from the home, he said.
Deputies also found drug paraphernalia, adult toys and cocaine residue in the house, Womack said.
