SEMO Campus Policeman Arrested for Child Molestation in Perry County

(Perryville) A former police officer at Southeast Missouri State University in Cape Girardeau has given up his badge while he is being held in jail.

36-year-old John Reyna worked for campus police for more than four years until he was arrested for child molestation last month in Perry County.

It is not clear when he officially gave up his badge but the move means he can never serve as an officer in Missouri again.

Reyna is being held in the Perry County jail in Perryville.

He has a preliminary hearing set for March 10th.
