A judge has decided that a suspended Broward County deputy accused of intimidating eight undocumented male immigrants into performing sex acts with him will be allowed to go to Oregon until his trial.
The judge ruled Friday that 29-year-old Jonathan Bleiweiss, who has been jailed since his August arrest, can stay with his father in Oregon. Bleiweiss' bail was set at $250,000.
Bleiweiss has been charged with 73 counts ranging from sexual battery to false imprisonment. Authorities say Bleiweiss of used his position as a deputy to intimidate the immigrants into performing sex acts during traffic stops.
Bleiweiss' attorney says the state's case is based entirely on hearsay.
