Sheriff resigns amid investigation into sex allegations

A Volusia sheriff’s deputy has resigned after he was accused of attempting to engage in a sexual act with a person in Daytona Beach, according to Sheriff Mike Chitwood. Stephen Corbin, 40, was arrested by police on Wednesday on two counts: bribery, assault, false imprisonment and solicitation of prostitution, the Daytona Beach Police Department (DBPD) said in a news release. Chitwood said Corbin was off-duty and wearing civilian clothes, but at the time of the incident he was operating his sheriff’s patrol car marked “Volusia.”
