It is claimed that Cox caused unlawful harm to Dean while he was at the Grove Police Station.
Cox, who has not been dismissed from the force, was granted $3,000 bail with two sureties. His trial will start on April 26.
Commissioner of Police Ellison Greenslade has threatened that the person responsible for posting the photos will be charged.
