A now former Putnam County youth resource deputy was arrested Monday on charges related to an alleged sexual relationship with a student of a local school, according to Sheriff Gator DeLoach.
The sheriff said Joshua Robert Herren was arrested and charged with custodial sexual battery, a first-degree felony, and two counts of unlawful sex with certain minors, a second-degree felony, and one count of an authority figure engaging in lewd conduct with students.
“We were unable to locate anyone who could say the anonymous information was accurate, and the victim stated that no such relationship took place,” DeLoach said. “The victim has now forward and disclosed that the allegations were in fact true and that Herren was engaged in a sexual relationship with a student.”
It’s unclear what school the youth resource deputy was assigned to. DeLoach made clear that the Sheriff’s Office is protecting the identity of the person who came forward under Marcy’s Law and that no additional information would be given that could jeopardize that. “Herren does not represent the law enforcement community any longer and is a disgrace to our profession,” DeLoach added. “I’m personally disgusted that he once wore the same uniform we all do.”
