HERNANDO COUNTY, Fla. – A former Hernando County deputy was arrested for sexual battery after coercing a victim to have sexual relations with him, the sheriff’s office said. 

According to investigators, the former deputy, 30-year-old Zachary Carter, was in uniform and on duty during two different occasions earlier this year. The Hernando County Sheriff’s Office said Carter indicated that the victim would face arrest for failing to comply. 

A lengthy criminal investigation began, and Carter resigned from the sheriff’s office once he was notified of the investigation. The former deputy worked with the sheriff’s office from 2018 to 2022 and had no previous disciplinary actions in his file, officials said.
