Mountie charged for soliciting sex from underage girls

An Alberta RCMP officer has been charged in connection to soliciting sex from underage girls.

Mounties say in Mid-June, an investigation began into a man who was believed to have been soliciting sex online.

The investigation was able to determine a man responsible, and 33-year-old Evan Peacock was taken into custody.

Peacock was also identified to be a member of the St. Paul RCMP for three and a half years.

He has since been charged with luring a child, and failure to comply with release order conditions.

RCMP note Peacock was previously released on conditions in connection to other charges in April.
