Former Chesterfield County Sheriff Sam Parker was found guilty on all eight counts against him and will serve at least two years in prison.

“Today is a sad day in my life,” Parker said, in addressing the Circuit Court Judge Lee Alford and the court.

“I respect the verdict…I apologize to Chesterfield County and what I put this county through.”

Parker also apologized to his deputies and for bringing embarrassment to them. “I still love them,” he said.
