(AP) — A former Sedgwick County Sheriff's sergeant has been sentenced to a year of probation after pleading no contest to stalking an ex-girlfriend.
Justin Maxfield was sentenced Wednesday for the misdemeanor charge.
An affidavit says Maxfield was charged after his ex-girlfriend told police in April that he sent unwanted text messages to her and had visited her home and workplace after being asked to stay away.
Maxfield, a 12-year veteran of the sheriff's department, was suspended when he was arrested in April. He resigned in May.
