A Springfield police officer charged with six counts of criminal sexual assault, custodial sexual misconduct and official misconduct made a brief appearance in Sangamon County court from the county jail via Zoom Thursday. Associate Judge Jennifer Ascher read the six complaints filed against Taylor Staff, who was arrested Wednesday by Illinois State Police at his home. Staff, a three-year veteran of the Springfield police, was denied a reduction of bond from $250,000 to $150,000. Staff has a preliminary hearing March 4. Staff, who was represented at Thursday's hearing by Sangamon County assistant public defender Victoria Kerr, told the judge that he planned to retain his own attorney.
