A former Johnson County sheriff's deputy has been charged with inappropriately touching a female inmate.

Thirty-nine-year-old Vernon Finkenbinder was charged Tuesday in Johnson County with unlawful sexual relations and posted bond. The sheriff's office says the incident occurred Sept. 23 while the female inmate was in custody at a central booking location for those suspected of a crime in Johnson County.

A news release says the allegation was reported two days later, leading to a criminal investigation.

Finkenbinder was placed on administrative leave and since has resigned from the sheriff's office. The news release says investigators have determined that what happened was "an isolated incident."

Finkenbinder is scheduled to make his first court appearance Oct. 11.

Do they no longer screen before hiring these people to work in law enforcement? Evidently not.

Oh, equine/iam/geta/the you are the worst offender of all and the biggest complainer of all. Shall we cut and past some examples of the name calling, swearing, etc. . . . you direct at other people on this site? I think gaspasser59 is hilarious and by the other posts he/she gets, so does everyone else but you and your other ids. I think KSAL should finally pull the plug on your account and we would not have all the name calling, etc. . . . . People could get back to discussion of the news.

Nice try, but Victory2012, gaspasser, t-bone, aurora, etc. . . are all different people. But Victory2020 is also Iamgonnagetu, getalife, equineman, theenforcer, redneckwatch, and a couple of others that KSAL shut down. He talks to himself because he cannot stand the fact that everyone else thinks his opinions are ludicrous.
