Resource Officer Domonique Robinson Charged with Possession of Marijuana

Darlington County Intervention School’s school resource officer has been charged with possession of marijuana with intent to distribute, according to a Darlington County Sheriff’s Office press release.

Domonique Robinson, a Darlington police officer, is in custody at the Darlington County Detention Center awaiting a bond hearing, according to the release. His age and address weren’t available.

Robinson has been suspended without pay pending the outcome of the investigation, Darlington Police Capt. Danny Watson said.

Darlington County School District officials also have been notified about his arrest, the release said.

A tip from the Hartsville Police Department prompted an investigation by the Darlington County Sheriff’s Office that led to the arrest. Darlington County Drug Enforcement Unit investigators found drugs in the suspect’s Hartsville residence late Tuesday afternoon, according to the release.

Robinson has been with the Darlington Police Department for about four years, Watson said.

“We never had any problems with him, no discipline,“ Watson said. “All we can do is wait and let the investigation take its course and proceed from there.“
