Colorado DARE Police Officer Brought Child Porn to Work
But be sure to say no to cannabis, kids!

http://www.gazette.com/articles/police-109780-sellman-springs.html

An Aurora police sergeant who lives in Peyton was arrested in El Paso County on Friday on suspicion of possessing hundreds of videos of child pornography depicting victims as young as 2.

Morgan Sellman, a former DARE instructor in Aurora schools, toted some of the child porn in a personal laptop that he brought to work, Colorado Springs police said in an arrest warrant.

The laptop case — obtained from his office — also contained sex toys, police said.

(...)

Police say the computer contained more than 240 illegal videos, including one of a man molesting a girl believed to be between 2 and 4 years old. Other files showed similar sex acts involving prepubescent boys and girls.

Sellman is a 14-year veteran of the Aurora Police Department whose most recent assignment entailed purchasing police equipment and supplies and coordinating the antidrug DARE program that sends officers to Aurora schools.

He last taught children as a DARE liaison in 2001, Aurora police spokesman detective Robert Friel said in a written statement.

1. this is such a insidious illness
serious therapy, not a slap on the wrist. Unfortunately, did you know that in CA this is only a MISDEMEANOR, not a FELONY?

my ex had a similar issue, thank god we left before he started molesting our 2 year old, there were signs he was 'grooming' her for it, I found out after we left...

no words, just disgust
