Former Sheriff’s Sgt Faces Fifth Arrest | Miami News

Former Broward Sheriff’s Office sergeant Scott Nelson Nida, 54, is facing his fifth arrest this year after allegedly violating the terms of his release by failing to complete an addiction treatment program—he was kicked out August 21. His criminal history includes robbery, car theft, false imprisonment, witness tampering, and battery. In April, he allegedly pressured a woman into dropping charges by threatening her job and pension; in July, he violated a domestic violence no-contact order when his ex-girlfriend and her teen daughter were found living with him. Nida, who joined the force in 2005, was placed on unpaid leave after his first arrest in January and has since resigned. Legal proceedings are ongoing as the system navigates this tangled web of accusations. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
