Court documents allege McNabb threatened the children to ensure they lied to the Oklahoma Department of Human Services. The alleged abuse did not occur while McNabb was on duty.

The Perry Police Department confirmed McNabb has been placed on administrative leave pending an internal investigation.

Internal and criminal investigations underway

Authorities say the criminal case is separate from the department’s internal review. The Noble County District Attorney’s Office is prosecuting the case.

The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation may assist if additional jurisdictional review is required.

Officials emphasize child protection
