A Sunrise police offi­cer was arrest­ed Saturday by his depart­ment on charges of pos­sess­ing and view­ing child pornog­ra­phy. Online Broward County jail records say, Carl Haller, 39, faces charges of inten­tion­al­ly view­ing child sex­u­al con­duct, com­pil­ing child pornog­ra­phy on a com­put­er, and tam­per­ing with phys­i­cal evi­dence. Haller’s bond was set at $10,000.

Sunrise police say Haller has been with the depart­ment since 2016 and works as a patrol offi­cer and SWAT team mem­ber. The inves­ti­ga­tion into Haller began Jan. 30, the depart­ment said in a release, and now includes FBI assis­tance in check­ing out Haller’s elec­tron­ic devices. “At the begin­ning of the inves­ti­ga­tion, Haller was placed on admin­is­tra­tive leave and his police-issued firearms, police badge and police iden­ti­fi­ca­tion were tak­en from him,” the depart­ment said. “Additionally, he has not had any inter­ac­tion with the pub­lic in any offi­cial capac­i­ty. Haller is now on admin­is­tra­tive leave with­out pay.” Anyone who might have infor­ma­tion on this case can call Sunrise police at 954−809−4540.
