A 73-year-old Boulder man has been arrested after police say he ordered child pornography videos through the mail.
Robert Vollmer turned himself in to staff at the Boulder County Jail on Monday after a warrant was issued for his arrest on suspicion of sexual exploitation of children, and attempted sexual exploitation of children, both felony charges.
According to a media release from the Boulder Police Department, a postal inspector met with police investigators on July 8, 2009, and told them that Vollmer had ordered videos “containing purported child pornography” through the U.S. mail.
On July 30, 2009, investigators from the Postal Inspection Service and Boulder detectives executed a search warrant at Vollmer’s home in the 500 block of Mohawk Drive. Investigators seized computer systems and other evidence and found pornographic images of children, police said.
Anyone with information about this crime, or on the suspect, is asked to call Det. Jack Gardner at 303 441-1851.
Information can also be sent to the Northern Colorado Crime Stoppers at 1 800 222-TIPS (8477) or 1 800 444-3776. Tips can also be submitted to the Crime Stoppers website at .
