It seems Florida has been dealing with this Jeremy Dewitte character for a while now.\u00a0 \u00a0He parades around giving people the impression that he is some kind of law enforcement officer.\u00a0 \u00a0He even has his own Fan Club<\/a>.\u00a0 Turns out that he is not actually an Officer of the Law but he is a confirmed Sex Offender…so he has that going for him.<\/p>\n

Dewitte was arrested Tuesday on a warrant that has ties to another arrest the Windermere Police Department made in September of 2019.<\/p>\n

When Jennifer met Dewitte, she said he told her his name was Jay and that he was a cop.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe told me he worked for the Oviedo Police Department and he was a security officer, and he worked for the Orlando Police Department and the Orange County Sheriff\u2019s Office,\u201d Jennifer said.<\/p>\n

It was then Jennifer said she started to feel uneasy.<\/p>\n

“I just dug a little deeper into who he was and I found out what his real name was. The first thing I saw was the FDLE (Florida Department of Law Enforcement) sex offender search result.<\/p>\n

An arrest affidavit shows Dewitte was charged in 2018 for failing to register as a sex offender.<\/p>\n

Jennifer said at the time, the information she gave law enforcement officers fell on deaf ears until Dewitte was arrested in September of 2019 for impersonating a police officer while he directed a funeral procession for Metro State Services.<\/p>\n

Dewitte\u2019s body camera video was then taken by police. Orange County deputies got a warrant to view it, and they found a secretly recorded conversation between himself and the State Attorney\u2019s Office and was arrested again.<\/p>\n

When asked what she thought about Dewitte\u2019s arrest she said, \u201cIt\u2019s about time.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the past, Dewitte said he\u2019s being targeted by law enforcement.<\/p>\n

Dewitte was released from the Orange County Jail Wednesday night.<\/p>\n
