Roberson was “de-deputized,” and he was reassigned away from people in custody as the sheriff’s investigation was conducted, authorities said.

The sheriff’s office is seeking Roberson’s termination through the Sheriff’s Merit Board.

Roberson turned himself in to authorities Wednesday.

He was released from custody after posting $2,000, court records show.

His next court date is scheduled for May 10.
