MARIBEL, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) — A Manitowoc County man previously convicted of child pornography possession has been arrested again.
Search warrants were executed at 50-year-od Smedley Butler’s rural Maribel home on Friday after detectives received a cyber tip from the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children.
During the search of his home, Butler confessed to having child pornography on his electronic devices, deputies say.
Butler is due in Manitowoc County court for a bail hearing Monday afternoon.
Butler is currently a registered sex offender due to a previous conviction of child pornography possession in Manitowoc County from 2009.
