Court records show former Cass County 9-1-1 Director Rob Koppert is tentatively scheduled to appear in U-S District Court in Council Bluffs on April 9th, with regard to an alleged Child Pornography charge. Robert “Rob” D. Koppert was charged with Possession of Child Pornography, after agents with the FBI visited his home on Plum Street July 24th, and executed a search warrant. Koppert tendered his resignation that same day.

Court Records for U-S District Court in the Southern District of Iowa, allege Koppert, knowingly possessed one or more matters which contained visual depictions that had been shipped and transported in interstate and foreign commerce, by any means including by a computer, the producing of such visual depictions having involved the use of a minor, i.e., any person under the age of eighteen years, engaging in sexually explicit conduct and said visual depictions of such conduct, and involving a prepubescent minor or a minor who had not attained the age of 12 years of age.

Koppert had served as the Cass County 9-1-1 Director since the mid-1990’s.
