Mason Williams, 26, of Eaton, also must register as sex offender for the rest of his life when he’s released from prison.
Published: Dec. 16, 2024, 11:16 p.m.EATON, Ohio — A former sheriff’s deputy who was a resource officer at a school in western Ohio was sentenced Monday to 18 months in prison after he was convicted last month of multiple charges for the sexual battery of a student.
“You can’t do your job of keeping kids safe at school when you lack the judgment to know that students are off-limits for sexual relationships,” Attorney General Yost said in a statement. “He’s an embarrassment to the badge and he has rightfully earned the label of sex offender.” Ohio law prohibits those in a position of power from engaging in sex with a student enrolled at the school where they work, regardless of the student’s age or whether the two consider the relationship to be consensual, prosecutors say.
