CHILD PO*******HY & EXPLOITATION ARREST: This morning, members of the Stoughton Police Department arrested Damion Moreno, 21, of Stoughton, for three counts of Possession of Child Po*******hy and two counts of Sexual Exploitation of a Child.

Part of our mission is to protect and improve the quality of life in Stoughton. We're thankful for our investigators who dedicate an abundance of time investigating these crimes to protect the children of Stoughton from becoming victims.

ONE OF A KIND: Many of our SPD officers have worked alongside former Stoughton Area EMS EMT Ed Bailey (AKA Fast Eddie). He was as flashy on the dance floor as an ambulance with all lights activated. He will be missed!

Fast Eddie, otherwise known as Eddie Bailey, had no shortage of dance partners. He was so well known in the Madison area that a "Fast Eddie sightings" page has 2,200 members. Bailey died last week.
