Former Gary Police Chief Charged, Arrested

GARY, Ind. (WISH) — A former Gary Police Department captain has been charged in federal court with sexual exploitation of a minor and receiving child pornography.

Prosecutors say James Bond, 52, of Crown Point, is accused of enticing a minor to produce, record and transmit sexually explicit content to him.

They say the minor was employed by the Gary city government as part of the Summer Youth Employment Program and was assigned to the police department.

Bond was arrested by police on Thursday morning.
