Cop accused of sex with minors considers plea
A former Maricopa police officer accused of sex with minors is apparently mulling over a plea deal. Garry Ferguson is accused of having unlawful sex with three minors in Kings County. He appeared in court Wednesday in Handford.
We called Kings County Deputy District Attorney Kathy Ciuffini who said she offered a plea deal to keep the case form going to trial and that he is considering it.
The plea deal calls for Ferguson to plead to one court of lewd and lascivious acts with a minor under the age of 14 and one count of statutory rape.
In return, Ferguson would get no more than eight years in prison. If convicted, Ferguson could face more than 26 years in prison. Ferguson has until September to consider the deal. His preliminary hearing is also set for September.
