34-year-old male arrested for Sexual Exploitation of a Child

Boulder County, Colo. - On November 22, 2023, 34-year-old Enrique GUTIERREZ-MONCADA was arrested for possessing and distributing child sexual abuse material (CSAM). Gutierrez-Moncada resides in the 4400 block of Redmond Drive in City of Longmont.

In addition to other responsibilities, investigators assigned to the Boulder County Digital Forensics Lab are tasked with investigating child sexual exploitation cases and high technology crimes, plus digital forensics expertise and analysis on a wide range of cases.
