Former sheriff's deputy arrested on suspicion of possessing child pornography [Breaking]
A former part-time sheriff’s deputy was arrested on suspicion of possessing child pornography and an assault weapon on Tuesday — the same day he was released from the department, officials said.
San Diego police officers took 51-year-old Jose Soto into custody at a home on Benviana Drive near Palo Alto Drive in Chula Vista, police said. Detectives were at the home to serve a warrant, but the department released few details about the allegations that sparked the case.Soto was hired by the Sheriff’s Department in 1998 as a detentions and court services deputy, sheriff’s officials said. He retired in January 2022 and was re-hired part-time in September 2022.
“The Sheriff is deeply disappointed and frustrated in the arrest of the former employee,” the Sheriff’s Department said in a statement. “The Sheriff knows any arrest of a deputy or former deputy casts a negative shadow on the department. “We would also like to point out we understand the vast majority of deputies come to work every day and promote the mission of the Sheriff’s Department and ensure the safety of the public. It is very unfortunate the hard work of so many is overshadowed by an incident such as this.”
