In April 2023, Deputy Lambeth was arrested and charged with custodial sexual abuse and a felony ethics violation after allegedly having sexual contact with an inmate he was transporting to jail. He was terminated from his position and released on a $45,000 bond. In July 2024, he faced a federal civil rights violation charge related to the same incident, with a potential sentence of up to 10 years in prison if convicted. The state charges are still pending in Escambia County District Court.
