WILLIAMSON COUNTY, TX (KXAN) — Several residents called on Williamson County leaders to take action after a sheriff’s deputy made a series of graphic posts on social media.
Three people signed up Tuesday to share their outrage with the Commissioners Court about some of the things that Commander Steve Deaton from the Williamson County Sheriff’s Office posted on Facebook.
Gary Richter, a 40-year resident of Georgetown, cited a report published by the Southern Poverty Law Center on August 1 that included several screenshots from Deaton’s Facebook page. Richter described the images shown there as “racist and misogynistic.”
“They were photos of dolls — Barbie dolls and elf dolls — posed in various ways,” Richter told the commissioners. “Most suggested sexual violence against women.”
One post showed an elf holding the hair of a doll who appeared to be sick.
The caption on that photo read, “Sticking to etiquette our elf holds the hair of his date to the party while she pukes. Silently though he wonders whether the roofie he slipped her earlier will still be effective.”
