Ex-probation officer arrested on suspicion of sexual contact with juvenile inmate

A former Riverside County probation officer was arrested Friday on suspicion of a sexual relationship with a juvenile inmate.

The Riverside County Sheriff’s Division mentioned in a information launch that Cecilia Pulido, 42, of Moreno Valley was booked into the Robert Presley Detention Heart on suspicion of annoying and molesting a baby, sexual contact with a prisoner or inmate and different prices.

The arrest got here at some point after the Riverside County Probation Division contacted the Sheriff’s Division “concerning an alleged inappropriate relationship involving a former worker and a male juvenile who’s in custody,” the assertion mentioned.

Pulido was employed as a probation corrections officer in December 2023. She resigned earlier than the alleged conduct was identified, the information launch mentioned.

This investigation is ongoing. The Sheriff’s Division requested anybody with info concerning the case to contact Grasp Investigator Juan Andrade of the Particular Victims Unit at (951) 955-1701.
