Florida Troopers Surrender to Jail

Two Florida Highway Patrol troopers voluntarily surrendered to the Osceola County Jail, according to the Osceola County Sheriff's Office. Captain Lenita King was booked on multiple charges. These include defrauding to obtain property, acting as a public servant falsifying documents, falsifying public or court records, and grand theft involving an amount between $750 and $5,000.

Trooper Maurice Vilsaint also presented himself to the jail. As of the latest update, he had not yet been booked, and his specific charges were still to be determined. Efforts to obtain official statements from the Florida Highway Patrol regarding the arrests and the employment status of the involved troopers have thus far been unsuccessful.
