A former school teacher in Washington, D.C., Eric Justin Toth, has made it onto the FBI’s “Ten Most Wanted Fugitives” list for allegedly producing child pornography.

According to Fox News, the investigation began in 2008 when Toth, who used the alias David Bussone, was caught with pornographic images of children on a school camera he had in his possession.

After being caught, Toth fled and it’s believed he has spent the past four years lurking in several states, including Illinois, Montana and Indiana.

Investigators believe Toth is a computer expert and may pose as a nanny or tutor online.

“He has the ability to integrate into various socio-economic classes, and is an expert at social engineering,” the FBI said. “Toth possesses an educational background conducive to gaining employment in fields having a connection to children.”

Putting Toth on the “Most Wanted” list gives authorities hope that someone will come forward, especially with the enticement of a $100,000 reward.

Toth is the 495th individual to be added to the list, taking the place of al-Qaida ringleader Osama bin Laden.
