A woman federal agents believe is traveling the country sexually-abusing two young girls might have recently spent time in the Seattle-area.

Agents don’t know who the woman is, but she is seen in videos and pictures sexually abusing the girls who are believed to be about 4 and 6-years-old.

They first found the images last year, and they have been hunting the 25 to 35-year-old woman ever since. The woman reportedly has ties to Washington D.C. and Los Angeles.

The Seattlpi.com reports the woman might have recently been living in the Seattle area.

The woman, though not identified, has been charged with the sexual exploitation of children.

Anyone with information on the case is asked to call Homeland Security at 1-866-347-2423. Anonymous tips can also be left at ICE.gov/tips.
