MAN WHO IMPERSONATED SHERIFF’S DEPUTY AND BROUGHT FIREARM TO SCHOOL CAMPUS IS NOW HEADING TO PRISON.
Today a judge ruled Rico Dukes violated terms of his probation and will now serve 716 days in the Department of Corrections. Last December, Dukes pled guilty to impersonating a deputy and bringing a weapon onto a high school campus.
At initial sentencing last year, the State asked that Dukes be sentenced to 2.5 years in prison for the crimes, however the judge deferred his sentence and gave Dukes probation. This month, Dukes violated his probation and will now serve two years in prison.
