A former Walworth County sheriff’s deputy is charged with multiple counts of sexual assault. A release from the Walworth County Sheriff’s Office says 36-year-old Gerardo Baca is charged with 19 felonies, including multiple counts of second- and third-degree sexual assault involving an intoxicated victim and capturing intimate images of people. Other charges include stalking, child enticement and threats to communicate derogatory information. The alleged offenses happened in Waukesha County, where investigators are searching for any other potential victims, some of them underage according to the Waukesha County District Attorney. Prosecutors in the case request that the criminal complaint recounting the allegations be sealed. Baca resigned his deputy position Friday. The investigation into the case has been transferred to the Waukesha County Sheriff’s Department, with the Walworth County Sheriff’s Office doing their own internal investigation. Baca is being held on a half-million dollars bail.
