Ex-Deputy Convicted of Assaulting Women Now Chaplain for Christian Cop Group
CLEF says Richard Fischer is reformed and will serve only in men’s ministry after serving prison time for sexually assaulting 16 women.
- The Christian Law Enforcement Fellowship hired former San Diego County sheriff's deputy Ricky Fischer, who served prison time for sexually assaulting women who had called emergency services seeking help.
- County taxpayers paid $10 million to settle a civil lawsuit brought by survivors of Fischer's assaults, resolving legal claims arising from his criminal actions.
- The Christian Law Enforcement Fellowship's president said Fischer experienced religious redemption and is ready to minister to male officers, having received the organization's support during his incarceration.
- Defending the appointment, the organization asks, "Who better to minister to cops who are in trouble" than someone who has been forgiven by God and understands personal struggle.
- While Fischer served prison time for assaulting women seeking emergency help, the Christian Law Enforcement Fellowship maintains its mission centers on ministering to officers facing personal or professional trouble.
