A former Plymouth County Sheriff's Department Deputy has become the second Sheriff's employee in Massachusetts to find himself in hot water this week.
The State Ethics Commission revealed allegations yesterday that deputy sheriff and vehicle mechanic Daniel Rowan had used his position to get a free car and influence equipment purchases in the department.
Rowan allegedly agreed to buy a used police car from a department vendor, Municipal Headquarters Inc., for $800, but then took the Crown Victoria and never paid for it.
He is also accused of influencing the department into buying equipment from M.H. Inc.
These allegations come just a day after the Ethics Commission fined a Norfolk County jail guard 6 thousand dollars for buying a house from an inmate.
The Commission will schedule a hearing on Rowan within 90 days.
