A Milwaukee County judge was arrested on tentative charges of possession of child pornography.
Officials with the Wisconsin Department of Justice identified the judge as Brett Blomme, age 38, a circuit court judge in Milwaukee County.
The arrest comes after an investigation into "multiple uploads of child pornography through a Kik messaging application account in October and November 2020," DOJ officials said. After "linking those uploads" to Blomme, search warrants were executed at his chambers, vehicle and homes in Milwaukee County and Dane County -- and Blomme was arrested.

A 44-page search warrant filed Friday by a DCI special agent said investigators found Blomme, using the name "dommasterbb," uploaded 27 videos and images containing child pornography. Two of the files were uploaded at a Milwaukee County government building, the search warrant said.
