Indian River County Sheriff's Office
INDIAN RIVER COUNTY, Fla. — A former Indian River County deputy accused of exchanging explicit content with underage girls has been offered a plea deal—just over a year after his arrest shocked the department that had just hired him.
Kai Cromer, 19 at the time, had only served one day as a deputy before being arrested by the very agency that swore him in.

According to the arrest affidavit, Cromer contacted 16- and 17-year-old girls on Snapchat, asking for nude photos and sexually explicit videos. Investigators say both teens sent him explicit content—and that Cromer, in turn, sent them explicit videos of himself.
