“This request was made as one of the individuals involved in this incident is retired from the HCSO, having served as a sworn law enforcement officer.  This individual now volunteers his time, serving in the capacity of a Reserve Deputy Sheriff.

“It should be noted this incident was domestic-related.  The individual was not volunteering as a Reserve Deputy Sheriff at the time of the incident.

“Once the investigation is complete, it will be turned over to the SAO for review.  The SAO will determine if charges are filed.

“Please note, the personal information (name, address, telephone number) of crime victims is protected under Marsy’s Law.  The personal information (address, telephone number, photographs, and dates of birth) of active or former sworn or civilian law enforcement personnel (and their families) is protected under Florida Statute 119.071(4)(d)2.

“Due to Marsy’s Law and FSS 199.071 (4)(d)2., we are unable to release any information regarding the individuals involved in this incident.”
