When: The incident occurred at about 11:37 p.m. on May 25, 2017. Investigators received the excessive use complaint in October, 2017. Deputies were notified of the disciplinary action on December 13, 2017. Where: The incident occurred near a residence located at 7171 79th Street North, Pinellas Park. Why/How: Sheriff Bob Gualtieri held a press conference on December 13, 2017, to discuss the outcome of the excessive use of force investigation involving Deputy Alexander Edge and Deputy Jason Fineran following the arrest of 25-year-old Jimarez Reed on May 25, 2017. Administrative Investigation Division investigators began their investigation in October 2017, after dash cam video of Reed’s arrest was brought to their attention. After a thorough administrative investigation, the Administrative Review Board determined the following: Deputy Edge violated agency policy pursuant to General Order 3-1.1, Rule and Regulation 5.15, Custody of Arrestees/Prisoners, by making physical contact with a person who he believed to be armed with a gun, in a cross fire situation, while his gun was holstered which was unnecessary, contrary to effective and accepted police practices and caused a use-of-force situation that could and should have been avoided. Deputy Edge violated agency policy pursuant to General Order 3-1.1, Rule and Regulation5.4, Duties and Responsibilities, by failing to conduct a thorough investigation and failed to properly handle evidence. Deputy Fineran violated agency policy pursuant to General Order 3-1.1, Rule and Regulation 5.4, Duties and Responsibilities, for intentionally muting the audio to his dash cam video during the incident in question. The excessive use of force complaint against Deputy Fineran was unsubstantiated. As a result of these violations, Sheriff Gualtieri said Deputy Edge will receive a 15 day suspension without pay and Deputy Fineran will receive a 5 day suspension without pay.
