Deputy McCausley has been involved in multiple incidents of misconduct. In December 2020, he was placed on administrative leave after a security audit revealed explicit images of juveniles on his department-issued devices. Despite ongoing investigations, he was reinstated in May 2022. In January 2024, McCausley was again placed on administrative leave, facing allegations including violating Jonathan’s Law by improperly photographing individuals receiving medical care. In February 2024, he was charged with contributing to the delinquency of a minor for allegedly encouraging his ex-wife’s daughter to file a false report with Child Protective Services. These incidents have led to multiple investigations and legal actions against him.
