Investigation began in August
(NORTH VERNON, Ind.) -- A former North Vernon police officer has been arrested and accused of child porn possession.
Indiana State Troopers say the investigation into 22-year-old Jaydan Vanosdol began in August when allegations of inappropriate conduct were made against him.
"During the investigation, detectives learned that Vanosdol allegedly began communicating with a female juvenile inappropriately through a social media app approximately a month earlier," ISP Sgt. Stephen Wheeles said.
Investigators allege that Vanosdol and the minor exchanged nude photos.
North Vernon Police suspended Vanosdol at the beginning of the investigation and he was later fired.
He was arrested today on one count of possession of child pornography, and was booked into the Jennings County Jail without incident.
