Former Hamilton County Sheriff’s Deputy Willie Marshay GreerA Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office patrol deputy has been terminated amid allegations that he handcuffed a woman and forced her to perform a sex act while he was on duty in Harrison.
Deputy Willie Marshay Greer, 33, was fired Thursday afternoon and arrested on charges of aggravated rape and official misconduct.
At a news conference about the charges, Sheriff Jim Hammond said his officers take seriously their responsibility to protect the public and must be careful not to put themselves in a position to show any disrespect.
“We must make sure these types of things never exist amongst the ranks of our officers,” Hammond said.
Greer reportedly stopped a woman for speeding on Birchwood Pike just after 1 a.m. Sunday. After running her information through a database, he discovered that the woman had open warrants for her arrest, according to the arrest report.
