A former sheriff's department sergeant is facing charges in connection with a sexual assault of a PCSD deputy. A group that represents deputies now wants an internal investigation.
TUCSON, Ariz. — A former Pima County Sheriff's Department sergeant is facing charges in connection with a sexual assault of a PCSD deputy last December.
The Pima County Deputy's Organization has asked Sheriff Chris Nanos to immediately launch an investigation into how the victim's lieutenant, captain and chief, handled the reported sexual assault involving two of their own personnel, according to a letter sent out by PCDO to news organizations. "The lieutenant stood outside the residence for over 60 minutes," Dawn Barkman, vice president of the Pima County Deputy's Organization, said in an interview with KGUN."I heard it was 80 minutes before the deputy actually called 9-1-1. I'm sure it was very frustrating for him because he probably felt like someone should do something."
Sheriff Nanos said he immediately terminated Garcia the morning after hearing about the sexual assault arrest. As for an investigation into how his deputies handled the situation—or if they took too long to take action—Nanos said he didn't get the complaint asking to look into their actions until eight months later.
