Fusner Indicted on Illegal Use of Minor in Nudity Oriented Material

The Muskingum County Prosecutor’s Office says a former police officer was indicted Wednesday on sex charges.  A Grand Jury indicted Trevor Fusner on ten counts of illegal use of a minor in nudity oriented material or performance, which are felonies of the second degree.  Authorities say the two incidents took place in 2015 and 2016 and involved a teenager at the time.  Fusner had been an officer with the Zanesville and New Concord police departments. Fusner was one of a trio of officers arrested in 2007 by federal agents for attempting to extort a Columbus drug dealer of a kilo of cocaine.  If convicted Fusner faces a maximum sentence of 80 years in prison.
