A warrant charges 34-year-old Timothy Carlson with extortion, bribery, soliciting prostitution, sex charges and violating ethics laws.

The warrant alleges that Carlson had sex several times with female prostitutes he picked up in Albuquerque while driving his unmarked police vehicle. He was assigned to the Department of Public Safety's special investigations division.
