A sheriff's deputy with an exemplary record has been charged with the sexual assault of a woman that he had arrested. The woman was handcuffed and arrested after her license plate number had been phoned into police concerning a hit and run accident.
In a report made by investigators the deputy forced the woman to have sex with him in exchange for her release.
The deputy drove the woman down a dead end road, released the handcuffs, where a sexual act was performed. The woman was later taken to her home where she immediately reported the incident to the police.
After an investigation into the incident the deputy was charged with sexual battery and placed on administrative leave without pay.
In comments made by the sheriff's department, "we are disgusted by this betrayal of public trust", "his actions reflect on every other man and woman who wears a uniform", "we cannot escape the consequences of one individual's actions".
Never mind a conviction, when someone is charged with a sex crime their life will not be the same again. This is made clear by the comments made from the sheriff's department. Additionally, a conviction of a sex crime requires that a person register permanently on the sex offender's registry, which is viewable to the public.
