Detective Marc Lugo of the Bakersfield Police Department was arrested on suspicion of attempting to coerce a 15-year-old girl into sending explicit images via Instagram. Following a tip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, an investigation revealed that Lugo had allegedly sent explicit messages to the girl. He faces multiple charges, including contacting a minor for sexual purposes and possession of obscene material. The police department reassured the public that these actions do not represent their values and placed Lugo on administrative leave.
The allegations against Detective Lugo are deeply disturbing and do not reflect the values of our department or the expectations of our community.
Lugo was booked into jail accused of multiple charges, including contacting a minor with intent to commit a sexual offense; possession of obscene material depicting a minor.
