In May 2019, Deputy Sharpe was accused of excessive force during the arrest of Wesley Pryor. Allegations include kneeing Pryor in the back, pulling him up by his arms while handcuffed, and ignoring his pleas when his toe was caught in the patrol car door. Pryor filed a lawsuit alleging excessive force and failure to provide medical care. The case, Pryor v. Coffee County, was filed in April 2020 and is ongoing.
