Frankfort man arrested in child exploitation investigation
FRANKFORT, Ind. — A Clinton County man has been arrested as a result of a Frankfort police investigation into alleged child exploitation.
Adrein Herrera, 23, was arrested Tuesday after deputies executed a search warrant at his Frankfort home. He was later booked into Clinton County Jail and charged with five counts of child exploitation and vicarious sexual gratification. No booking photo is currently available.
According to Frankfort PD, a tip from the Indiana Crimes Against Children Task Force is what initiated the “lengthy investigation”. Detectives later identified Herrera as a suspect.
“I want to thank Detective Joshua Danner for his investigative work on this case,” said Chief Scott Shoemaker. “Child crime investigations are tough cases to work, but we are committed to our partnership with the Indiana State Police to assist in ICAC tips reported in our jurisdiction.”
Evidence gathered by police will now be sent to the Clinton County Prosecutor, who will make final charging determinations. No other information was provided by Frankfort PD.
