Warminster allowed a former police officer accused last month of sexually abusing four boys he met on the job to quietly retire in 2009 with a “work-related disability” and collect more than $180,000, plus a monthly pension.
James Christopher Carey, 53, of Cape May Court House, New Jersey, received an “honorable discharge” under the 2009 settlement, which allowed him to receive work-related disability benefits.
The revelation of the retirement deal became public following Carey’s arrest last month on more than 100 counts of child sex abuse charges, as well as charges of official oppression following a lengthy Bucks County Detectives investigation and inquiry by a Bucks County Investigating Grand Jury.

On Tuesday, Bucks County Detective Greg Beidler testified that investigators received several new leads in the case after an April 7 news conference about it. He said detectives are investigating claims from potential new victims of Carey now.
In a news release, the DA s office said it strongly believes there are even more victims in the case. They re asking anyone with information to call Bucks County Detectives at 215-340-8216 or 215-348-6504.
Carey worked for Warminster Township from May 1989 until he retired from the police force in May of 2009. Prosecutors say he abused all four boys while he was an officer.
