A Ferndale police officer was charged Thursday with attempted child molestation. FOX13
Senior Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Ben Pratt asked the court to set Langton’s bail at $100,000. Pratt said the bail amount requested reflected the underlying allegations.
Langton’s lawyer, Emily Beschen, said he has been an upstanding citizen and law enforcement officer for nearly 20 years and has no criminal history, so should be released. Beschen said Langton owns his Blaine home and would surrender his passport to assure he’ll reappear in court.Pratt also said there are allegations that once Langton became aware he was being placed on leave, law enforcement saw Langton start a fire and burn some documents.
Langston’s bail was set at $40,000. An anti-harassment order was put in place between Langton and the victim’s mother and a sexual assault protection order was put in place for the minor child.Popular local church singer pleads guilty to 22 counts of child molestation, child pornography
