A Cameron man is facing two felony charges of sexual contact with a prisoner or offender by an employee of a jail.

According to the Missouri State Highway Patrol’s Division of Drug and Crime Control, Aaron C. Dueker, 26 has been arrested in connection with the charges filed Tuesday in Clinton County.

Dueker was a Deputy with the Clinton County Sheriff’s office. According to the MSHP, the arrest was the result of an investigation conducted by members of the Division of Drug and Crime Control at the request of the Clinton County Sheriff’s Office.

According to a news release from the Clinton County Sheriff’s Office, on Sept. 6 the office contacted the MSHP in reference to allegations of misconduct involving a deputy and an inmate.

“The alleged Deputy involved in this incident was immediately placed on Administrative Leave and has since been terminated from the Clinton County Sheriff’s Office. The inmate has been transferred out of the Clinton County Jail and is safe,” Sheriff Larry Fish said in the release.

Bond for Dueker was set at $50,000. A court date was not listed Wednesday afternoon on online court documents.
