Deputy Richard Roe is implicated in a lawsuit filed in January 2024, alleging that he failed to intervene during the arrest of a 16-year-old girl on January 18, 2022, where excessive force was reportedly used. The lawsuit asserts that Deputy Roe and his colleagues overlooked indicators of sexual assault and human trafficking, focusing instead on the use of force. The lawsuit is ongoing, and the Custer County Sheriff’s Office has requested an external review of the incident.
