San Antonio, Texas - July 17, 2008

Brooke Bennett's former stepfather is now facing federal charges in Texas where he lives.

40-year-old Ray Gagnon was charged in Vermont earlier this month with obstruction of justice. FBI agents say he hindered the investigation into Brooke's kidnapping and murder by tampering with a computer.

Now a grand jury in Texas has indicted Gagnon on charges of possession and transportation of child pornography.

The pornography was found during the investigation into Brooke's disappearance.
