The corruption and lawlessness in Sheriff David Clarke’s Sheriff’s Office continues…
A sheriff’s clerk was charged Monday with felony misconduct in office for allegedly stealing cash paid for restraining orders and other court documents.
Damond Watts, 38, was accused of stealing $1,200 between September and December of last year, according to the criminal complaint.
The sheriff’s office has had other employees charged criminally in recent weeks.
A correctional officer is charged with sexual assault. A different guard is charged with videotaping female co-workers.
Unless these are people that Clarke himself selected/advanced, I don’t see this as his fault. 10% of any given staff is likely to be scummy. There’s enough scum that he IS responsible for that we don’t need to point out that which he is not.
