RANCHO CUCAMONGA -- A preliminary hearing setting was postponed once again Tuesday for a former Long Beach Police Department detective charged with having sex with an underage relative.
Erik Alvarez, 42, of Upland is charged with three felony counts: specifically lewd or lascivious acts with a child 14 or 15 years old and two counts of unlawful sexual intercourse with a minor under the age of 18.
Alvarez was immediately placed on unpaid administrative leave from his job in the Youth Services Department of the Long Beach Police Department at the time of his arrest last month.
He has since resigned his position with the police department, city officials said.
If convicted on all counts, Alvarez faces up to four years and four months in state prison, according to the San Bernardino County District Attorney's Office.
He is scheduled to return to the Rancho Cucamonga Superior Court on July 12 when his preliminary hearing is to be set.
