NEW BOSTON — The New Boston Police Department arrested Patrick T. Reardon, 42, of Greenville, on March 4 at 5:41 p.m. on multiple charges, including violation of privacy and possession of child sex abuse images.
The arrest followed an investigation that began Jan. 17 after a hidden camera was discovered in an electrical outlet at his former residence on Wright Drive.
Reardon faces 16 counts of violation of privacy, seven counts of interception of telecommunication or oral communications, one count of possession of child sex abuse images, and one count of breaching bail.
A former Nashua firefighter, Reardon was previously arrested by Derry police on April 28, 2023, for 15 counts of possession of child sex abuse images. That case is still pending in the Hillsborough County Superior Court-North, and he had been released on bail.
Following his recent arrest in New Boston, Reardon was held on preventative detention bail and arraigned in Goffstown District Court on March 5. He remains held on preventative detention at the Hillsborough County House of Correction.
A probable cause hearing is scheduled for March 11 at 10 a.m.
The ongoing investigation is a collaborative effort between the New Boston Police Department, Derry Police Department, and the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office.
