Howell, 31, faces first- and second-degree felony charges of photographing and videotaping children in sexual acts. He also faces two counts of child pornography, which is also a second-degree felony, and a third-degree felony charge of child pornography. 

He was arraigned on those charges Thursday in front of Magisterial District Judge Scott Gross. Howell remains in York County Prison in lieu of $15,000 bail, which he could not post. 

A preliminary hearing in this case is set for Feb. 1.
