A Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) officer was arrested for first-degree child sex abuse on Dec. 6.
The 49-year-old Maryland resident had been employed with the MPD since 2001, according to a press release.
“His police powers had been revoked and in a duty status that does not require him to interact with the public,” the press release states.
The suspect is accused of sexually abusing a juvenile female victim between September 2005 and June 2006. The allegations were investigated by the MPD’s Internal Affairs Division.
