Former Plantation officer won'
PLANTATION · A city police officer who resigned after he was questioned about an allegation that he picked up a prostitute in Orlando will not lose his police certification, according to an agreement regulators will consider later this summer.
Officer Ernesto Williams was on a leave of absence from the Plantation Police Department on May 3, 2006, when an Orange County Sheriff's Office deputy saw him pulling off to the side of the highway in an area police there call "Prostitution Heaven." He stopped "so that you could readily allow a known prostitute entry into your personal vehicle," Plantation Police Chief Larry Massey wrote in a Sept. 5 memo to Williams.
Williams quit about three months later, on Aug. 18, the same day he was brought into the Plantation Police Department for questioning by internal affairs investigators. They concluded Williams violated conduct policies.
According to the agreement reached between Williams and the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, Williams gets a six-month retroactive suspension, so the time he has been unemployed will count as a suspension. The Criminal Justice Standards and Training Commission must approve the agreement and will take up the matter on Aug. 9.
The agreement also calls for a "prospective suspension" of 45 days from the time the agreement is signed, which means Williams cannot work as a police officer during that time. There is also a requirement that he attend an ethics/AIDS awareness course prior to his rehiring in a law enforcement agency in Florida, said Patrick Murphy, FDLE spokesman.
"In the settlement agreement, both sides thought it fair this would be the penalty," Murphy said. "It fell within the guidelines."
Williams, a six-year veteran who earned $47,262, could not be reached for comment. According to documents, he told Plantation investigators the woman only leaned in his window to ask for a ride.
