The police officer told me today that I'm beeing accused of distributing cp. But since I've told them where they are it is unlikely that the prosecuter will go for a arrest warrent since I told them where I am and how to reach me and they would only issue arrest warrents if they are afraid the 'criminal' might disappear.
From what I understand investigation is still ongoing but I'm the accused in this.

OK.. So this is not US law enforcement who searched your home which is in Europe. And.. good news, they returned your gf's computer already.
Basically... if they want to continue with the allegations, any prosecutor needs evidence on which to base this. Presumably we are talking about a possible prosecution in your home country - and not in the US.
Only my
worth - it would appear there is some basis for continuance of the enquiry. You would clearly know a lot more about that side. There is also a possibility that if concrete evidence is available, that an application could be made within the US for extradiction proceedings to have you transported to your home country. (The US often has dual-treaties to cover CP with a few other countries, - but very reluctant to give up their own citizens for pedo offenses in other nations.)
If you "know" genuinely that you have not been engaging in elements of CP and the allegations of police in your home country are not as they may be claiming - is it worth engaging a lawyer in your home country and working thru him to make any necessary statements and provide whatever evidence he may consider relevant to the police and clear this matter up?
