A San Antonio police officer has been charged with child pornography.
Albert Sanchez, a 16-year veteran of the department, was arrested Thursday. According to a news release, a witness reported on Jan. 5 that he’d told her “he was engaged in sexual conduct with juveniles.”
Sanchez, 38, was placed on administrative leave, and detectives got a search warrant Monday to seize his cellphone. The phone had several “explicit images of minors,” the news release states.
He’s been suspended without pay, and bail was not set Thursday night.
