** Public Service Announcement **

The Marshfield Police have responded to a number of calls for vehicles broken into in their driveways recently. The individuals carrying out these crimes appear to be targeting unlocked vehicles in the late night and early morning hours.

All the vehicles thus far have been unlocked and, in some cases, if keys were left in the vehicle the vehicle had been stolen.

The Marshfield Police are fortunate enough to have a great community and great neighboring communities that work together to solve these crimes. Detectives from the Marshfield Police are working with detectives from these communities as well as the State Police Auto Theft Task force
We are encouraging all residents to please remove keys from your vehicles and keep them locked. Well lit areas are also a good deterrent for such individuals and please call 911 if you see something that doesn’t seem right.

Arrest Made Following Child Exploitation Investigation

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Arrest Made Following Child Exploitation Investigation

Marshfield, MA — Recently, the Marshfield Police Department Detective Unit, in collaboration with the Massachusetts State Police Cyber Crime Unit, conducted an investigation into the suspected electronic receipt of child po*******hy by an individual residing in Marshfield.

As part of the investigation, court-authorized subpoenas were issued to an internet service provider. The information obtained identified the subscriber as Nicholas Miller (DOB: 11/15/1993), residing at Building 5, Unit 1 of the Castle Green Apartment Complex in Marshfield. Investigators subsequently conducted both visual and electronic surveillance, and a court-authorized search warrant was obtained for the residence.

On Monday, March 30, 2026, members of the Marshfield Police Detective Unit, along with State Police Cyber Crime Detectives, executed the search warrant at the residence. During the search, electronic devices belonging to Miller were seized, and images consistent with child po*******hy were discovered.

Nicholas Miller was placed under arrest and charged with Possession of Child Po*******hy. He was transported to the Marshfield Police Station for processing and later transferred to Plymouth District Court for arraignment.

A full forensic examination of the seized electronic devices will be conducted by the Massachusetts State Police Cyber Crime Unit. Additional charges may be forthcoming pending the outcome of that analysis. Investigators are also working to determine the origin of the images and videos.

Chief Phillip A. Tavares stated, “The exploitation of children is one of the most serious and disturbing crimes we investigate. I commend the diligent work of our Detectives and our partners in the Massachusetts State Police Cyber Crime Unit for their commitment to protecting vulnerable victims.”

Chief Tavares added, “We will continue to aggressively pursue individuals who engage in these types of offenses. Our message is clear—if you are involved in the exploitation of children, you will be identified and held accountable.”

This remains an active investigation.
