A SOUTH Carolina representative who prosecutors say used the username “joebidennnn69” has been charged with distributing child sex abuse material.
RJ May, 38, was arrested on a 10-count indictment on Wednesday and immediately suspended from office as he faces federal charges.
The indictment says the Republican lawmaker used the bizarre screen name to exchange files containing child sexual abuse on the social messaging app Kik.
Cops started investigating May after Kik flagged suspicious activity to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children in April 2024.
They then connected the account to May’s home IP address and phone.
Police found the account shared at least 10 videos depicting child sexual abuse.
May was elected to the House in 2020 and went on to create the Freedom Caucus, which is a group of extremely conservative members.
