New Jersey woman accused of producing, distributing child porn

FLEMINGTON -- A northwestern New Jersey woman arrested earlier this year as part of a sweeping child pornography investigation has been indicted on numerous charges.

Hunterdon County prosecutors say 38-year-old Lori Bauer of High Bridge faces five counts of child endangerment and one count of criminal sexual contact. She faces several decades in prison if convicted on all counts.

Bauer was among more than 70 people charged in April as part of an investigation by federal authorities. She's accused of recording a child younger than 13 engaging in sexual activity and sending the video to a man in New York.

Authorities say the incidents occurred in 2011, while Bauer was living in Holland Township.

Bauer remains jailed on $175,000 bail.
