Las Vegas Metro Police Sergeant Kevin Menon will plead guilty to all charges in three separate criminal cases, his attorney Robert Draskovich said.

The charges involve abuse of power, illegal arrests on the Strip, and possession of child abuse material.

Draskovich said Menon accepted the plea deal "due to the strength of the evidence against him," as reported by News 3lv. He added that Menon had support from his family throughout the case.

Menon was accused of detaining and arresting several people without probable cause on the Las Vegas Strip.

Menon was found with child sexual abuse material on his electronic devices during an investigation into misconduct. This led to two more criminal cases. He took a plea deal that combined all three cases and admitted to five felonies and three gross misdemeanors, including illegal arrests and possession of child sexual abuse material.

Menon agreed to serve 4-10 years in prison as part of the plea agreement. He will also have to register as a sex offender upon his release.

“I am not the man these charges reflect,” Menon said in court as Clark County District Court Judge Ron Israel sentenced him. “For any harm I have done, I beg for forgiveness.”
