Detectives seized several cellphones that were suspected of being used to share child sexual abuse material.
The arrest stems from a tip received in July 2025 from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, stating Hernandez-Arciniega may have exploited children online with activity spanning the West Coast as far as Los Angeles, California.
Detectives found no evidence that Hernandez-Arciniega produced the materials.
