Deputy Jones – Richmond County Sheriff’s Office

In 2014, Deputy Jones was involved in a case where he violated the open-door policies of a school, leading to multiple complaints. He allowed a student to share his hotel room during a school trip, resulting in an investigation by Child Protective Services, criminal charges, and the end of his tenure as a deputy sheriff. Deputy Jones eventually pled guilty to sexually abusing the student. A lawsuit was filed against Sheriff Wilkins, alleging liability for Deputy Jones’ actions under the doctrine of respondeat superior.

Why This Matters

By organizing this data, we can potentially demonstrate when officers were previously aware of laws they later claim ignorance of, challenging qualified immunity defenses and promoting accountability.
