CONCORD -Nashua resident Diego Gonzalez, 34, has been arrested by the FBI and charged with one count of Production of Child Sex Abuse Materials (CSAM), commonly known as child pornography, U.S. Attorney Erin Creegan announces. Gonzalez was arrested this morning and made an initial appearance in federal court this afternoon. He was ordered detained pending trial.

According to the charging documents and the public record, in September 2026, the Nashua Police Department responded to Gonzalez's home in Nashua after a report regarding Gonzalez taking sexual pictures of a minor and sharing them with other individuals online. As part of this investigation the Nashua Police Department searched Gonzalez's phone. During the search, law enforcement found multiple CSAM images of the minor in question, as well as concerning conversations regarding CSAM.

The charge of production of CSAM carries a minimum prison term of 15 years and a maximum prison term of 30 years. Sentences are imposed by a federal district court judge based upon the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and statutes which govern the determination of a sentence in a criminal case.

The details contained in the complaint are allegations. The defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation is investigating this case with valuable assistance from the Nashua Police Department. Assistant U.S. Attorneys Christopher R. Mignanelli and Matthew Vicinanzo are prosecuting the case.

The case is brought as part of Project Safe Childhood. In 2006, the Department of Justice created Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative designed to protect children from exploitation and abuse. Led by the U.S. Attorneys' Offices and the DOJ's Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section, Project Safe Childhood marshals federal, state and local resources to better locate, apprehend, and prosecute individuals who exploit children, as well as identify and rescue victims.
