JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - The Jacksonville Sheriff's Office announced Tuesday that an officer is charged with capital sexual battery.
WJXT reports that Matthew Butler is a nine-year veteran of the Sheriff's Office, according to Undersheriff Pat Ivey.
Police were made aware on Friday that Butler might have been in possession of a photo of a young girl.
After a thorough investigation, Butler was arrested Tuesday afternoon, Ivey said.
By definition, capital sexual battery is a crime where the offender commits battery against a victim who is under the age of 12.
The officer's arrest comes four days after the arrest of a veteran police officer. Rodney Bryant, 32, was charged with three counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and removed from duty.
