According to media reports, Cheshire Police Officer Robert Regan, 37 has been charged with risk of injury to a minor and fourth degree sexual assault.

Apparently Officer Regan turned himself into Wolcott Police on August 29.

He is scheduled to appear in court on Sept. 19.

All I can say is let us not judge until all the facts come out.
