Fake Officer Arrested Again in Orange County, Florida (Video)

Jeremy Dewitt’s Background

41-year-old Jeremy Dewitt, owner of a security company providing funeral escort services, has a history of legal issues related to impersonating a police officer. Dewitt has been arrested multiple times and convicted once for this crime.

Recent Arrest Incident

Dewitt was arrested again when a deputy saw him carrying what appeared to be a firearm. The incident began with the deputy ordering Dewitt to step away from his motorcycle and go to his knees. Dewitt was taken into custody for openly carrying a firearm, which is illegal in Florida.

Confrontation with Police

During the arrest, Dewitt resisted the deputy’s attempts to remove his helmet for identification. He became agitated upon learning he was being arrested for carrying a concealed weapon, which he claimed was a pepper ball gun designed to look like a Glock.

Charges Dropped

At the station, it was confirmed that the weapon was an unloaded pepper ball gun. As a result, the charges for carrying a concealed weapon were dropped, and Dewitt was released. However, due to this arrest, his current bond was initially revoked.

Court Appearance

Dewitt appeared before a judge to address the bond revocation. Despite the charges being dropped, Dewitt faces trial for impersonating a police officer. If convicted, he could receive a sentence of up to five years in prison.
