Jaylen Fleer is a former San Diego County sheriff’s deputy who was sentenced to 12 years in state prison for committing sex acts with an underage girl and trying to meet up with minors for sex.
He pleaded guilty to 18 felonies and two misdemeanors, including contacting minors to commit a sexual offense, sharing material to seduce minors and engaging in oral copulation with a minor.
The case involved four victims between the ages of 12 and 14, but prosecutors contend that Fleer contacted more than four underage girls over social media.
Deputy District Attorney Jalyn Wang said Fleer sought out young girls, offered them money to coax them into meeting with him, and engaged in sexual acts with them.
Fleer worked in San Diego County’s jails and courts before his arrest in July 2020.
He was 27 years old at the time of his sentencing, according to Times of Sandiego.
Fleer later appealed from his 12-year prison sentence, but the court declined to impose the maximum sentence.
