GLOUCESTER , MASS. (WHDH) – A Gloucester police officer was arrested on child sexual abuse material charges, officials say.
Alexander Aiello, 24, of Gloucester, allegedly used a “dark web” website that allows users to download, view, advertise, and distribute child sexual abuse materials, according to the Department of Justice.
Officials say a search of Aiello’s home on April 28 resulted in police seizing a laptop, USB thumb drive, and cell phone which were found in his room.
Aiello is expected to face a judge in Boston at a later date.
