State's probe of porn video deputy languishes
Detective had sex on tape with indicted suspect in case he was investigating
SANDUSKY — State investigators declined to say Wednesday if criminal charges will be filed against a deputy caught in the act on surveillance video having sex with an indicted suspect, his badge and gun in full view.
More than a year after getting the complaint — with the video showing the deputy, a detective, having sex with the woman he was investigating, state agents and Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost declined Wednesday to say if he will face charges.
Erie County Sheriff Paul Sigsworth said he’s disappointed that there hasn’t been any followup.
“He’s a disgrace,” Sigsworth told StayTunedSandusky.com on Thursday, referring to former Deputy Daniel Orzech. “This behavior was corrupt and extremely disappointing. It was a violation of the trust placed in him, his victimization of individuals under color of law.”
Sigsworth also expressed impatience with the pace of the investigation.
