A former New Hampshire state representative — who made headlines as the first openly transgender lawmaker elected in the Granite State — was arrested Thursday and accused of distributing sexually explicit images of children.
Derry resident Stacie M. Laughton, 39, was charged with four counts of distribution of child sexual abuse images, Nashua police said in a press release. Laughton’s alleged actions came to light earlier this week, when individuals reported that Laughton had distributed sexually explicit images of children, police said.
Nashua police said Laughton’s case is connected to that of Lindsay Groves, a New Hampshire woman also arrested Thursday for allegedly taking explicit photos of children at the Tyngsborough day care where she worked.
