Equal justice for all? Hardly! Ex deputy gets sweetheart deal.

A former Indian River County Deputy who was arrested after soliciting nude pictures from 16 and 17 years old is getting offered a sweetheart deal by the prosecutors.

He was originally charged with one count of possession of child pornography and two counts of lewd computer solicitation of a child. If convicted, he faced a minimum sentence of 33 months in prison and mandatory sex offender registration.

Under the proposed deal, he would plead guilty to three amended counts of Possession of Obscenity Harmful to Minors. The state is offering a sentencing cap of eight months in county jail, followed by three years of sex offender probation and NO REGISTRATION!

Here’s a guy who used his position of authority to force minors to send them nudes!

Thanks to Eugene V. Debs for pointing out this news to us!
