Kirksville
Another former member of the
Unionville Police Department was arrested after an investigation by the
Kirksville Regional Computer Crimes Unit.
Clinton Montalbetti, 23, was
arrested by Kirksville detectives and the Linn County Sheriff’s Office at the
Linn County Sheriff’s Office for an outstanding warrant for possession of child
pornography Tuesday.
Montalbetti was investigated by
the Kirksville Regional Computer Crimes Unit after images of suspected child
pornography were located on a flash drive used by the suspect while he had been
employed as a police officer with the Unionville Police in late 2013.
Police executed a search
warrant at Montalbetti’s residence outside of Brookfield Tuesday and collected
evidence.
Montalbetti was being held on a
$10,000 cash-only bond. The investigation continues with the possibility of
additional charges.
Montalbetti’s arrest comes on
the heels of the arrest of former Unionville Police Officer David Banks, who
was arrested last week for sexual misconduct with a minor.
