The Florida Criminal Justice Standards and Training Commission reprimanded Broward County Sheriff Gregrory Tony for failing to disclose that his Pennsylvania driver’s license had been suspended when he applied for a Florida license in 2019.
The reprimand comes nearly a year after the Florida Department of Law Enforcement’s investigation which revealed Tony lied on his application and recommended that he face disciplinary action.
The FDLE had recommended a six-month suspension of Tony’s law enforcement license, but an administrative law judge had recommended 18 months’ probation, ethics training and a reprimand instead.
In a statement through his attorney, Tony said the punishment he received is actually a counseling letter, which is considered a less severe corrective measure.
