A former Greenville police officer pleaded guilty to child sexual exploitation and was sentenced to 100 days in jail.

Dominic Olivares, 30, pleaded guilty in court to two counts of third-degree sexual exploitation of a minor. Six other counts, including first- and second-degree sexual exploitation, were dismissed as part of a plea agreement.

The judge ordered Olivares to serve 100 days in jail under the state's Misdemeanant Confinement Program. He also received two consecutive suspended sentences of six to 17 months and will be subject to eight years of supervised probation. Olivares must register as a sex offender.

Olivares was arrested in September 2025 by the State Bureau of Investigation after he used a 16-year-old girl to create videos depicting sexual activity. He was hired as a Greenville police officer in May 2020 and was fired on 5 August 2021, two months after the SBI began investigating a complaint against him.
