(KNZA)--The next court appearance for a former Elwood police officer accused of alleged sex-related offenses has been postponed to November.
A pre-trial conference hearing for 30-year-old Aaron Newberry, currently of Amazonia, Missouri, was continued Thursday to November 6.
Newberry was arrested July 21 on charges of aggravated sexual battery and mistreatment of a confined person.
According to the criminal complaint, the female victim was allegedly “detained or confined” by Newberry at the time of the crime.
Newberry was fired following his arrest, just over four-months after being hired as an officer with the Elwood Police Department.
He remains free on bond.
Nemaha County Attorney Brad Lippert is serving as special prosecutor in the case.
