Missouri State Highway Patrol’s Division of Drug and Crime Control (DDCC) on Wednesday arrested Carl E. Swanson, 41, of St. James, and a former policeman in Doolittle, Mo., on three felony counts alleging child sexual abuse.
The DDCC cited a lengthy investigation by the Troop I Criminal Investigative Unit of the Missouri State Highway Patrol.
Phelps County Sheriff’s Office on April 28, 2025, sought DDCC assistance with an investigation into Swanson on the child-sex abuse case.
Swanson was transported to the Phelps County Jail and placed on an investigative hold. The Phelps County Prosecuting Attorney formally charged Swanson on Nov. 5 with one count each on allegations of first-degree child molestation, second-degree rape, and second-degree statutory sodomy. He was jailed in Phelps County with bond set at $250,000. Bond was posted for Swanson on Thursday.
