Chief Deputy Kirk Bonsal with the precinct confirms Deputy Victor Solorzano is on paid administrative leave pending the invasive visual recording investigation.
“The allegations have not been substantiated at this time and remain under investigation,” the Chief Deputy adds.
Court documents reveal Deputy Solorzano is being looked at for “sexual harassment, hostile work environment, and official oppression.”
During a Christmas party last December, Solorzano asked his sergeant if he could keep a secret, then showed pictures of a naked employee in a shower.
