Inset: John Burgos (Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office). Background: Burgos standing in court (WJXT).

A Florida patrol officer faces criminal charges after he allegedly returned to the location of a domestic violence call, removed his body camera and touched the victim under the guise he was doing a follow-up investigation, authorities said.

John Burgos, a 35-year-old officer for the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office (JSO) for over six years, faces charges of battery and false imprisonment, Brian Kee, the agency’s director of personnel and professional standards, said in a Thursday press conference.

“JSO is appalled by Burgos’ conduct and by the fact that he committed these crimes while representing himself as a public servant,” Kee said. “With this arrest, JSO sends a clear message that we will not tolerate when a member of this agency violates the law and threatens the public trust in law enforcement.”
