Former Greenville Officer Dominic Olivares Serves 100 Days for Child Porn Plea
The 30-year-old ex-cop avoids prison on a plea deal but must register as a sex offender.
By Justin Brooks ·
Dominic Olivares will spend 100 days in jail after pleading guilty to possessing child pornography. The former Greenville, North Carolina, police officer accepted the sentence in court on Wednesday, November 4.
Olivares, 30, admitted to two counts of third-degree sexual exploitation of a minor. As part of the plea agreement, the court dismissed six other charges. Those dropped counts included first- and second-degree sexual exploitation of a minor.
The judge handed down two consecutive suspended sentences ranging from six to 17 months. Olivares will avoid prison time unless he breaks the rules of his eight-year supervised probation. He is also required to register as a sex offender.
State Bureau of Investigation agents arrested Olivares in September 2025. The initial arrest warrant listed two first-degree, three second-degree, and three third-degree sexual exploitation charges. Officers said Olivares used a 16-year-old girl to create videos of her engaged in sexual activity.
Olivares joined the Greenville Police Department in May 2020. A department spokeswoman stated he was fired on August 5, 2021. That termination came two months after the SBI began investigating a complaint against him.
