Carraway allegedly received an additional video depicting a 13-year-old boy performing a sex act, according ot the report, which notes that Carraway faces 270 state charges including 15 counts of sexual exploitation of a minor for the purpose of producing child pornography. Authorities believe the abuse happened between August 2015 and February 2016.

Carraway was arrested after a guardian of one of the victims found a nude photo on the victim's phone and reported it to the school and police.
