HAMILTON TOWNSHIP, NJ (MERCER)–Hamilton Township Police Department released the following statement today in regards to the officer charged with sexual crimes against children:
An officer of the Hamilton Police Division was arrested by the New Jersey State Police (NJSP) on Wednesday, January 29, 2025, and charged with a series of extremely serious criminal offenses. That officer is being suspended without pay and served with a notice of termination. The Hamilton Police Division is cooperating fully with the NJSP and I thank the NJSP for acting so quickly on a tip they received on January 28, 2025. The off-duty allegations made against this officer do not reflect the values of this Agency or of the dedicated and hard-working men and women who put their lives on the line every day for the citizens of Hamilton Township to keep you safe. This Agency condemns in the strongest possible terms the alleged actions of this individual and supports the most vigorous prosecution of this case. As this is an ongoing criminal investigation, the Hamilton Police Division will have no further comment at this time and refers all media inquiries to the Public Information Offices of the New Jersey State Police and the Office of the Attorney General.
Our office is not providing the officer’s name as doing so could compromise the anonymity of the children victimized.
