Florida cop arrested for child sex assault
A sheriff's deputy in Clay County, Florida was arrested last Tuesday for sexual battery of a girl under the age of 12.
The Daytona Beach News-Journal says that deputy Brian Sutherland is accused of sexually assaulting the child of a friend. Sutherland has resigned from his job and is being held in custody. An internal investigation is also underway. Sutherland was disciplined for improper conduct in 2004 after he was accused of threatening an inmate.
