Police officer resigns over child porn charges

January 30, 2009 By WRN Contributor

An officer with the Hastings Police Department has resigned after being charged with possession of child pornography.

According to the criminal complaint filed in December in St. Croix County, Anthony Miller allegedly admitted to agents from the Wisconsin Department of Justice's Division of Criminal Investigation that he downloaded, possessed, and traded or distributed child pornography for nearly two year. The material consisted of images of girls Miller estimated to be between the ages of nine and 15.

DOJ officials say Miller also admitted he used his personal laptop while on duty in Hastings in order to obtain Internet access via unencrypted wireless signal from random locations throughout the area.

Both charges against Miller are felonies and carry a combined maximum sentence of 65 years in prison and a $250,000 fine. They have a combined minimum sentence of eight years in prison and $1,000 fine for each illegal image.
