MARLBOROUGH – State police have arrested a Nebraska man and accused him of child sexual exploitation in the Town of Marlborough, where he used to live.
State police announced the arrest of Colin Sutton, 22, of Lincoln, Nebraska, on Feb. 26.
Sutton was charged with possessing a sexual performance by a child under 16 years of age, a felony.
An investigation began in January 2025 after the State Police Internet Crimes Against Children Taskforce received a cyber tip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.
The investigation, conducted by the Troop F Computer Crimes Unit, the Troop F Bureau of Criminal Investigation at the Highland barracks and the Internet Crimes Against Children Taskforce, led to the execution of a search warrant for electronic devices at Sutton’s former residence in the Town of Marlborough.
After his arrest, Sutton was released and issued a ticket to appear in the Town of Marlborough Court on a future date.
The name of Sutton’s attorney was not immediately available.
