A Henrico officer is charged with sexual battery and taking indecent liberties with a child. The charges in this case were filed in Hanover County where the alleged incidents took place back in 1993.
These are troubling allegations that involve a trusted and well respected robbery investigator. Mike Fisher is charged with taking indecent liberties with a child and aggravated sexual battery.
The long time investigator Fisher was arrested on Tuesday. While Fisher has worked for Henrico police more than 20 years, he lives with his wife in Hanover.
After Fisher was arrested, he was arraigned on the charges which according to court records date back to 1993. The allegations say the crimes occurred between January 1 and May 30, 1993 and around June 10 of the same year.
Hanover authorities have refused to comment on the arrest or charges citing an on-going investigation. Henrico police say Fisher has been suspended without pay.
Henrico is also conducting an internal investigation.
NBC12 made attempts to contact mike fisher but have been unable to talk to him. He's posted bond and is out of jail. Fisher is next due in court on these charges in June.
14 year old incident...quite a delay.
