Anyone with information about inappropriate interactions or contact with the Tamaqua police officer charged with numerous child sexual abuse crimes is asked to contact the Pennsylvania Attorney General’s Office.

Christopher Cordes was arrested in May, and all charges were recently bound over for trial.

“Considering the defendant’s former employment as a Tamaqua Borough police officer, he would have had proximity and contact with minors in the area,” the Attorney General’s Office noted in a recent statement.

Cordes, 29, of Bloomsburg, is accused of child sexual abuse, manufacturing child pornography, sexual intercourse with a dog and other charges.

He was arrested following an investigation by the state Attorney General’s Office after a tip was received from Snap Inc. for a user posting a nude photo of a child. The investigation found that Cores expressed that he is sexually attracted to children, including infants, and that he gave an underage victim a sexually transmitted disease.

Cordes was immediately suspended from his job and was fired in June.

He is free on $250,000 bail.

The office’s Child Predator Section can be reached at 800-385-1044.
