Jacob Carley, a 41-year-old cop in Manitou Springs, was arrested after publishing the revealing photos that were meant “only for him” on his Tumblr account, according to an arrest affidavit
cited by the Colorado Springs Gazette.
He has been hit with a misdemeanor charge of suspicion of posting a private image for harassment.
The 45-year-old former flame told Colorado Springs police she gave Carley the images when the pair were dating and felt violated upon seeing them on the social
networking site, the affidavit states.
She also told police she worried the images might cause her to lose her job if anyone saw them and claimed to be fearful of Carley because he’s a police officer, court records show.
Carley, a two-year department veteran, told investigators he posted the nude photos one week after the pair broke up because he thought she was “hot” and assumed she’d be unable to see them after deleting her own Tumblr account, the affidavit shows.
He claimed to be unaware that he didn’t have permission to post the snapshots, but couldn’t show that the woman consented for them to be put online, according to the affidavit.
Carley has been placed on administrative leave, Manitou Springs police department officials
said in a statement Tuesday.
