A 36-year-old Ridgewood man is accused of producing and sharing child pornography as well as chatting with children online and requesting their nude images.

James Razin was arrested on May 20 after law enforcement carried out a search warrant at his apartment as part of a months-long investigation, Bergen County Prosecutor Mark Musella said.

Razin, who is single and unemployed, has been charged with first-degree production of child pornography, second-degree distribution of child pornography, third-degree possession of child pornography and third-degree endangering the welfare of a child.

The same investigation also led to the identification of a child victim, younger than 12, who police said was being sexually exploited in Georgia.
