| Claggett Pleads No Contest, Faces Up To 10 Years posted on 02/01/2010
Former Clackamas County Sheriff’s Deputy Brandon Claggett has pleaded no contest to coercion, weapons charges and assault.
Known to the Mountain community as the CCSO’s “Weed and Seed” officer, Claggett, 38, will be sentenced March 1 by Clackamas County Circuit Court Judge Robert D. Herndon. The judge will determine the sentence — a maximum of 10 years in prison — as Claggett and the district attorney’s office did not come to an agreement on a penalty.
The no contest plea was for two incidents that left his estranged wife fearing for her life.
In April 2009 Claggett held her at gunpoint and threatened to kill her.
In July 2009 Claggett was arrested again when he went to his former Sandy residence armed with a gun and a knife. The sheriff’s report said that he believed his wife was staying at that location.
The disgraced deputy resigned from the CCSO in October 2008. A sheriff’s office investigation discovered he had taken a teenage girl on unauthorized trips in his patrol vehicle and had e-mailed the girl sexually explicit photos during official duty hours.
