The investigation of Wukmer began after the Rainsville Police Department’s Criminal Investigations Division followed up on a tip. Police arrested him at his job in Fort Payne, Ala., after the Dekalb County Sheriff’s Office discovered child pornography on electronic devices seized in a search of Wukmer’s home.
