A 21-year-old woman claims she was sexually harassed by a deputy while she was experiencing a severe mental health crisis, according to a $1 million lawsuit filed against the Sacramento County Sheriff's Office on Tuesday.
The complaint does not identify the woman, referring to her only as "Jane Doe" in order to protect her privacy. It does identify the deputy as Patrick Walker and says that Walker obtained her contact information and requested sexually explicit photos and videos in exchange for payment.
After Walker continued to ask over the course of several days, the alleged victim sent him a video of her genitalia on Facebook messenger and the deputy proceeded to send her money on Cash App, according to the filed complaint.
The lawsuit says that the alleged victim is disabled and struggles with mental health issues, including bipolar disorder, anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder and suicidal thoughts.
After she tried to kill herself on July 25, her friends called 911, and emergency medical responders and members of the Sacramento Sheriff's Office arrived at the scene, including Walker.
The complaint says that the alleged victim was transported to the Kaiser Permanente South Sacramento Medical Center and placed on a 72-hour mental health hold.
According to the lawsuit, Walker obtained the woman's phone number by accessing "law enforcement-based records and files" and used his department-issued cell phone to text her.
