Sheriff Places Deputies on Leave After Failing Domestic Violence Probe
Following a triple homicide in Tamarac, Florida, Broward County Sheriff Gregory Tony publicly condemned his department’s handling of prior domestic violence calls involving the suspect, Nathan Gingles. Seven deputies are on paid leave pending an internal investigation into their alleged failures to take appropriate action, including a missed opportunity to arrest Gingles in December when his estranged wife expressed fears for her life. Sheriff Tony stated that deputies exhibited “piss poor performance” and that individuals will face consequences, emphasizing his intent to prevent arbitration. Gingles is currently jailed on multiple charges, including three counts of first-degree murder.
