A child therapist from Plainview was arrested for allegedly distributing child pornography.
Federal prosecutors say Renee Hoberman distributed videos of infants being sexually abused.
They also say Hoberman posed as a man in online chat rooms and bragged about abusing his own children and offered others a chance to sexually abuse children.
Court records show that Hoberman has been a therapist in Melville for children up to the age of 17.
Hoberman was arraigned Wednesday afternoon. She pleaded not guilty to the charges.
