A
Grammy-winning composer who worked on “Sesame Street” has been charged
with making and distributing child pornography after allegedly
handcuffing a naked 4-year-old girl and taking pictures. Fernando Rivas,
59, appeared in a South Carolina federal court Monday where he pleaded
not guilty. Rivas was arrested in April after FBI agents raided the
composer’s home and discovered a collection of photographs depicting a
4-year-old girl naked and “restrained in handcuffs and other
bondage-type devices.” Police say Rivas – who also taught music at a
local Charleston school – admitted he took the pictures of the little
girl and emailed them to two other people. Rivas remains on house arrest
after posting $300,000 bail.
