The undercover agent met Mills at his car in the park&#8217;s parking lot where Mills asked for oral sex, an arrest report says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The SCSO employee, 35-year-old Leroy Green, contacted agents through the same hookup app while at Liberty Park in Lake Mary, documents show. Agents said Green was wearing a sheriff&#8217;s office T-shirt that read &#8220;Youth Services&#8221; on the back when he was arrested. Green was a juvenile intervention specialist, SCSO said. He&#8217;s facing similar prostitution and indecent exposure charges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When deputies searched Green&#8217;s car, they found his department gun and ID badge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SCSO said agents were in the parks to catch people engaging in &#8220;lewd and lascivious behavior.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mills&#8217; UCF Board of Governors appointment term expires in January of 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mills was also on the board for&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.liftorlando.org\/who-we-are\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Lift Orlando<\/a>, a partnership between business and residents to strengthen communities.

We will provide updates as more information becomes available to us.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Green and Mills posted bond Friday and were released. Mills told WESH 2 News he denies the accusations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Green resigned following his arrest, SCSO said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Two other men were arrested in the sting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The University of Central Florida&#8217;s board of trustees vice chair and a Seminole County Sheriff`s Office employee were both arrested Thursday in a prostitution sting, court paperwork shows.
