The deputy chief for administration for the Cartersville Police Department, Jason DiPrima, has been placed on leave following his arrest on solicitation in Polk County, Fla.
Cartersville police said that DiPrima was charged with “soliciting another for prostitution, lewdness or assignation.
DiPrima has been placed on administrative leave pending an internal investigation.
Update:
DiPrima was in Orlando for the American Polygraph Association Seminar/Workshop when he allegedly responded to an online escort advertisement and began a conversation with an undercover detective by asking ‘Are you available tonight’ and ‘I’d like to come see you. What is your rate?’” the sheriff’s office reported.
“During the online communication, DiPrima agreed to engage in sexual activities with the undercover detective, but then told the detective ‘I got spooked,’ and asked to see her the next night.”
DiPrima contacted the undercover detective again the next day and agreed to a meeting, officials said.
“He initially agreed to pay the undercover detective $120 for a half hour of ‘full service’ sex. When he arrived at the undisclosed location, he confirmed the arrangement by giving the undercover detective $180 and a multi-pack of White Claw Hard Seltzer,” the sheriff’s office said.
