Middletown police officer charged with possession of child porn



CROMWELL, CT (WFSB) -

A community is in shock after a  Middletown police officer was arrested Tuesday and charged with possession of child pornography.
Officials said they arrested Samuel DiProto, 61, of Cromwell, after a search of his home.
On March 12 and April 10, a Connecticut State Police detective assigned to the Computer Crimes Unit logged onto a publicly available internet file sharing network and was able to download images and videos of child pornography from a computer connected to the network with an IP address assigned to DiProto.
Officials searched DiProto's home and said they seized computers, hard drives and thumb drives before arresting him.
Diproto retired from the Middletown Police Department back in 2009 after serving 22 years.
Eyewitness News has learned that Diproto lives near a daycare center, which has some parents concerned.
"It does worry me a lot that we do play out here next to this road, so it's scary," said Trisha Merriman.
Eyewitness News knocked on the door at DiProto's, but no one answered.
DiProto appeared in federal court Wednesday to answer to the charges and has been held in jail pending a court appearance scheduled for May 13.
In convicted, DiProto could spend up to 20 years in jail and faces a fine up to $250,000.
Officials said that the matter was "enhanced" because it is alleged that DiProto possessed photos and videos of prepubescent minors and minors under 12 years old.

worst of the month


The worst case is from Bolivia, North Carolina. According to the complaint filed by a minor’s guardian ad litem, a police officer, Jaymin Lenwood Murphy, came to a home to investigate allegations that an adult had sent inappropriate photos via cell phone to a minor child. The officer said he needed to question the minor in private. Once in private, the officer had the minor remove her clothing so he could take photos for his ‘investigative file.’ It gets worse. The officer later returned on minor’s fourteenth birthday and raped her.


The runner-up story comes from Bakersfield, California. A 21-year-old woman called the police to report a burglary. Two deputies arrived and one led her into a room where she was then sexually assaulted under the pretense of a ‘pat-down’ search by the deputy. The authorities did move promptly against this deputy–so good for them.

Bakersfield cop sentenced for child porn

 Former Bakersfield cop sentenced for child porn






FRESNO, Calif. (KBAK/KBFX) - A former Bakersfield cop was sentenced Monday to 48 months in prison for possessing child pornography, according to federal prosecutors.

Christopher Bowersox's sentence also includes 120 months of supervised released. Bowersox entered a plea in February and had faced a maximum of 10 years in prison.

Bowersox was arrested in February 2010, accused of possessing and distributing child pornography. The FBI case against him alleged he had child pornography images on his home computer and took part in online chats in which he discussed raping, mutilating and killing young boys.

He resigned from the Bakersfield Police Department in early 2010, a few months after the child pornography investigation was launched.

The criminal investigation report included excerpts of online chats between Bowersox and a man in Florida.

"Every time I talk someone into rape, I always get a bit sad when they're not into this," the Florida man allegedly wrote in the online chats.

"Oh, I'm ... into it, big time," Bowersox responded, using the screen name "cbowersox."

Bowersox told investigators he had communicated with others in Internet chat rooms, and that he "shared fantasies" with others through chat rooms. According to the case report, Bowersox "reluctantly" described the fantasies as things between men and boys and violence between men and boys.

Bowersox had headed up the Bakersfield police anti-graffiti unit for a while.
