When police began a sting operation to catch suspected prostitutes they had no idea they would be arresting one of their own. Levi Gibbon Jr, a part-time police officer with Newport Township in northeastern Pennsylvania, has been charged with prostitution.
An informant told the state police Organized Crime Unit about a man working as a hustler and an undercover officer set up a date to meet the man at a local motel.
The criminal complaint against Gibbon, 40, says that he discussed various sex acts with the undercover officer and the fees involved. The officer allegedly accepted $200 and began to undress.
[...]
Police say that after his arrest Gibbon gave a written statement saying he had been working as an escort and had expected to be paid for sex.
[...]
Gibbon has been suspended without pay until the case is heard.
