FAIRFAX COUNTY, VA. — A former Fairfax County Sheriff’s Office deputy is facing charges for a sexual assault. Keith Washington, 47, of Stafford, was charged with one count of carnal knowledge of an inmate and one count of sexual battery.

Police investigators were contacted by the Sheriff’s Office Internal Affairs Bureau on August 13, 2017 after a former inmate said she was sexually assaulted by Washington in December 2016 or January 2017, at the Fairfax County Alternative Incarceration Branch. We obtained warrants this morning for Washington and he immediately turned himself in at the Adult Detention Center. He’s being held without bond and will be transported to another jurisdiction’s jail.
