A Richmond County deputy was arrested Thursday after allegedly raping a woman who was in police custody, according to multiple media reports.

Quick began working with the sheriff’s office in July 2018 and was assigned to the department’s road patrol division, the station reported.
He is being held without bond at the Richmond County jail, records show.
