Billboard reports that 63-year-old Coronel was arrested in Beaufort County, South Carolina  on Friday and charged with five counts of sexual explotation of a child. According to local reports, he was caught using a peer-to-peer web cam program inappropriately and his location was tracked through his IP address.

When officers arrived to arrest Coronel he was found to have four videos playing or uploading depicting children between 3-12 engaged in sexual acts.
