A Greenwood CVS photo department manager was formally charged Monday with 100 counts of child exploitation and child pornography.
Daniel P. Nanos, 38, was arrested last week by Greenwood police after other CVS employees found images of naked young girls on a digital camera.
Nanos told police the camera belonged to him, according to a probable cause affidavit, and searches of his home on Indianapolis' Far Westside and a storage unit netted more digital pornographic images of teen and preteen girls.
Each charge represents one photo, with the 17 pictures on the camera resulting in child exploitation charges, a Class C felony; and 83 others on a computer and disks each resulting in a charge of possession of child pornography, a Class D felony.
Thousands of digital images were found during the investigation, the document said.
Nanos also was charged with one count of manufacturing methamphetamine, a Class B felony, because of materials found in the storage unit.
If convicted on all charges, Nanos could face up to 33 years in prison, Marion County Prosecutor Carl Brizzi said.
Brizzi commended Nanos' coworkers for contacting police after one found the camera Oct. 5 and -- thinking a customer had left it behind -- turned it on, seeing the pornographic images.
"We're not talking about just numbers; we're talking about children," Brizzi said. "In each and every picture, there is a separate victim." Officials in Marion and Johnson counties decided to file all charges in Marion County; Nanos lives in the 500 block of Crandon Drive. Bond was set at $80,000.
Last week, police said Nanos said the photos and meth materials were from a different life -- "Bad Dan" -- while he was now trying to live the life of "Good Dan."
Nanos apparently tried to keep others from seeing the digital images kept in computer files. Many listed on the charging sheet were marked password protected.

Haha, not only is this guy a scumbag but he is a total idiot as well.
I read a story recently about a guy who had kiddie porn on his computer and was caught when he took it to a computer store to be upgraded. He wanted more memory and a bigger hard drive and asked that the contents of his existing hard drive be transferred to the new one. He was hanging around the store while the job was being done, and when the people working on it discovered the images and videos he had they immediately called the police. He was arrested in the store.
