A former Polk County deputy is accused of exposing himself on Saturday, the Polk County Sheriff\u2019s Office said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investigators said 20-year-old Rodney Isaiah Williams III, who was hired in Nov. 2023, was caught on camera naked and acting inappropriately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the Sheriff\u2019s Office, Williams resigned immediately after his arrest.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

 Deputies said Williams admitted to stepping outside his Davenport apartment complex while off-duty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Polk County deputies said he claimed he pleasured himself \u201cfor the thrill\u201d and that he \u201cdid something stupid.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis vulgar and indecent behavior by one of our now former agency members is completely unacceptable, not to mention illegal,\u201d Sheriff Grady Judd said. \u201cWe will never tolerate such immoral and illegal conduct. That is why he was promptly arrested.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Williams was booked at the jail on Sunday on a $1,000 bond.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
