In the early 1990s, Deputy Nelson was accused of failing to protect Anthony DeMaria and his family from ongoing harassment and threats by their neighbors, the Sorensens. Allegations included displaying hostility towards the DeMarias, ignoring their complaints, and making derogatory remarks about their Italian heritage. A lawsuit was filed alleging violations of constitutional rights, but the court ultimately dismissed the claims.
