A longtime fire department battalion chief in Florida was arrested on 29 felony counts after a lengthy investigation allegedly implicated him in financial fraud, unlawful surveillance, and stalking.

In September 2024, it was reported that suspicions were raised about the financial management of a regional urban search and rescue task force. Upon an initial investigation, the authorities believed that discrepancies had occurred because the battalion chief, who had overseen the program for about seven years, allegedly used task force credit cards for personal shopping. Investigators claim that between 2019 and 2024, more than $47,000 was spent on non-job-related items from online retailers and storage companies. When they looked further into the situation, the authorities alleged the man attempted to manipulate financial records to conceal the purchases.

As the inquiry continued, investigators also uncovered evidence that the chief had purchased hidden cameras and GPS tracking devices with the same accounts tied to the fraudulent spending. Authorities believe the devices were concealed in private areas to record individuals without their knowledge. The GPS tracker was reportedly used to monitor specific people, leading to aggravated stalking charges.
