Khidhr Odom, a former Summit County resident, was arrested in Aurora on April 16 and extradited to Summit County this week on new sexual exploitation of a child charges, authorities said. Odom, who was on probation at the time of the arrest, now faces two counts that the sheriff’s office classifies as class 4 felonies. He was released on a $15,000 bond on April 18 and remains under investigation.

Working off that lead, detectives coordinated with the Aurora Police Department to locate Odom on April 16, arrest him, and then extradite him to the Summit County Detention Facility. Sheriff Jaime FitzSimons wrote that “sensitive investigations like these take teamwork” and publicly thanked Aurora officers for their assistance.
