Florida mom’s murder probe nets brother-in-law on child porn charges; latest in string of family arrests

The brother-in-law of murdered Florida woman Nicole Montalvo is the latest of several former relatives now under arrest as a result of the investigation into her death.

Nicolas Rivera, 28, was apprehended by federal authorities Monday after detectives allegedly discovered child porn images during the Montalvo probe. Rivera, who faces eight counts of child pornography, has been identified as a “person of interest” in the woman's slaying.

Rivera's arrest, however, is only the most recent in a string of arrests of Montalvo's former relatives. Her estranged husband, 31-year-old Christopher Otero-Rivera, Nicolas’s brother, and the pair's father, 63-year-old Angel Rivera, were arrested last week and charged with first-degree murder. They're both being held without bail at the Osceola County jail.
