Harrisburg Police Cpl. Sean Cornick was arrested Thursday after he was videotaped stealing money from an evidence locker he believed was property seized in a drug investigation, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Middle District of Pennsylvania said.

The office Friday afternoon released more information on the arrest and investigation of Cornick, who served as the supervisor of the Harrisburg Bureau of Police's Vice Unit. Cornick is being charged with theft of money that belonged to a federal agency and removing property to prevent its seizure.

Cornick, 44, was released Thursday under several conditions, including posting a $10,000 signature bond, surrendering his passport , agreeing not to travel outside the jurisdiction of the Middle District and not having contact with potential witnesses in the case. He also is prohibited from having firearms.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Eric Pfisterer, deputy chief of the criminal division, is prosecuting the case.

The maximum penalty under federal law for removal of property to prevent seizure is five years of imprisonment, a term of supervised release following imprisonment and a $250,000 fine. Theft of federal funds under $1,000 is punishable by up to one-year imprisonment.

Cornick stole money from an evidence locker, which he believed was property seized in a drug investigation, U.S. Attorney Bruce D. Brandler said in a press release. Cornick was videotaped taking money out of the locker, he said.

An inventory later confirmed money was missing from the locker, Brandler said.

"It is always a sad day when fellow law enforcement officers are alleged to have broken the laws they have sworn to uphold," Brandler said in a prepared statement.

"Our office takes these matters very seriously and we greatly appreciate the assistance and cooperation of the Harrisburg Police Department and Pennsylvania State Police in conducting this investigation."

The charges against Cornick are the result of an internal investigation by the Harrisburg Bureau of Police that was referred to the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Pennsylvania State Police.

Cornick is married to Anne Gingrich Cornick, deputy general counsel for the Pennsylvania Governor's Office of General Counsel. She serves as liaison counsel to a number of state agencies, including the Pennsylvania State Police.

Cornick's LinkedIn page said he served in the U.S. Marine Corp from 1990 to 1994. Was a security officer from 1995 to 1997 and then worked for the Berks County Sheriff's Department.

Cornick joined the Harrisburg Police Department in 1997 and worked in the Uniform Patrol Division before he was assigned to the Criminal Investigation Division in 2005.

He began serving as the vice unit supervisor in September 2015.
