VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. — A Virginia Beach police officer is charged with several counts of sex crimes against a child including attempting indecent liberties with someone under the age of 15 that date back to this fall.
According to the indictment, sometime between Sept. 13 and Oct. 10 of 2023 31-year-old Kyle Justin Lalonde had allegedly asked a 12-year-old girl to feel his private areas.
During the same time frame, prosecutors believe he also attempted to have sex with a child under the age of 15 and solicited child pornography.
The documents do not say if it is just one person or multiple.
However, around Valentine's Day of this year, Lalonde allegedly was known to have child porn in his possession.
According to court documents Lalonde has been employed by the Virginia Beach Police Department for three years.
