Deputy Darrin Dotson – Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office

Deputy Dotson has a history of misconduct, including a 2016 incident where he intentionally applied a Taser to the face of a man he was attempting to arrest, violating department policy and Taser guidelines. Prior to this, he was suspended for yelling at a Little League umpire while armed, on duty, and in uniform, and was cited for poor emotional control during a traffic stop where he swore at a driver and possibly damaged the vehicle. These incidents have led to his inclusion in the county prosecutor’s Brady file.
