On September 27, 2007, Deputy Erin Joyce participated in the decontamination process of Deputies Jane Doe and Brian Szumski after a flea infestation. During the incident, Joyce was present when Deputy Chief Ryan Foy filmed the decontamination, including images of Doe’s bare back. Doe filed a lawsuit alleging invasion of privacy and emotional distress. The court found that Joyce’s involvement did not constitute a constitutional violation but noted the unprofessional nature of the incident.
