Glen?Peter Ahlers, a law professor and Interim Associate Dean for Information Services at Barry University School of Law, was arrested on 50 counts of unlawful possession of materials depicting the sexual performance of a child, according to prosecutors in Orange County, Florida.
Barry University moved quickly to distance itself from the allegations. In a statement, a university spokesperson said, “Barry University is aware of the arrest of a member of our law faculty. The faculty member has been placed on immediate administrative leave pending further review. The University is cooperating fully with law enforcement authorities.”
