Disturbing.
BELLINGHAM, Wash. — A sheriff’s deputy in Washington state has been fired and is facing charges, accused of abusing his position as a law enforcement officer to threaten, blackmail and sexually assault two women.
The 23-year-old Ferndale man was hired in January by the Whatcom County Sheriff’s Office and was in his 15-month probationary period in late June when the sheriff’s office was notified about social media conversations that caused concerns, court documents said. During an interview for the internal affairs investigation, a woman accused Case of rape and assault with sexual motivation, according to court records. The sheriff’s office on July 10 contacted the Mount Vernon Police Department and requested that a criminal investigation against Case be opened. The Skagit and Island County Multiple Agency Response Team , which investigates police shootings and other use of force incidents, is leading the investigation.
According to court documents, one woman said she met Case on Snapchat and told him she had been arrested for DUI and was on probation. When Case learned she had been at a bar in violation of her probation, he ordered her to his house under threat of arrest, the court documents said.
