Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd says he is “hotter than a bare butt on a tin roof in August” after learning a sheriff’s volunteer officer was caught selling prescription pills out of a patrol car while in uniform.

Sheriff Grady Judd says he is "hotter than a bare butt on a tin roof in August" after learning a sheriff’s volunteer officer was caught selling prescription pills out of a patrol car while in uniform.An investigation into Roberts' activities began after detectives learned that a volunteer was selling Oxycodone and that the prescription pills had been found inside a patrol car.

Roberts agreed to meet the undercover deputy at a Lake Wales gas station and directed them to his patrol car for the transaction. Sheriff Judd says Roberts sat in the car, in uniform, as he counted the undercover deputy’s money and then handed over a baggie with the pills.According to PCSO, the deputy followed Roberts back to the sheriff's substation where he was arrested. Judd says Roberts permitted deputies to search his home and that’s where they found marijuana.

"You’re talking about an epic system failure," Judd said. "He’s a convicted felon from 52 years ago.""He said, ‘I can’t be a convicted felon, I’ve been voting all the way to Nixon,’" Judd added. "We’re embarrassed… Somebody messed up 12 years ago on a background," Judd stated. "He’s been a stellar volunteer, very well-loved, done a good job, except when he’s selling oxys out of the car, using it as cover. I am livid."
