A Hudson Valley officer allegedly traded heroin for sex with prostitutes. One prostitute was treated for an overdose.

Ronolfo Ventillo, 49, is free on bail by a Rockland County judge after he appeared in court on Wednesday and surrendered his passport and weapon.

According to ABC, the veteran Rockland County correction officer was arrested after the Rockland County sheriff’s office started an investigation following an overdose of a prostitute Ventillo allegedly met while she was an inmate.

A witness says she saw the woman get into Ventillo’s car and later called 911 when the woman overdosed.

Ventillo was suspended without pay pending his trial.
