Bucks County Deputy Sheriff Charged with taking Photos of Naked Prisons

(July 21, 2026)–A Bucks County Deputy Sheriff was formally charged on Monday with secretly photographing naked prisoners while in custody, disseminating those images to co-workers and personal contacts, and then lying to investigators in an attempt to cover up his actions, Bucks County District Attorney Joe Khan announced on Monday.  Ryan Gaffney, who was terminated from the Sheriff’s Office last month, was charged Monday morning with official oppression, unsworn falsification to authorities, possessing an instrument of crime, and obstructing the administration of law or other government function.

The charges were filed via summons, and a preliminary hearing was scheduled for Aug. 10. The criminal charges stem from an investigation launched by the Bucks County Detectives on March 31, 2026, after receiving a referral from the Bucks County Sheriff’s Office, which commenced a concurrent internal affairs investigation following a complaint regarding Deputy Gaffney’s on-duty conduct.  According to the affidavit of probable cause, on January 30, 2026, Gaffney and four other uniformed deputies executed an arrest warrant for an adult male at his residence in Middletown Township. The male was suffering from a mental health crisis and was located upstairs in a bedroom, naked from the waist down.

BROOKLAWN, NJ (July 19, 2026)(CNBNews)— James “Jim” DiAmore, age 77, longtime pharmacist and friend to generations of residents, passed away on July 15, 2026, following a long illness. Jim was a unique personality — blunt, direct, and sometimes misunderstood by those who didn’t know him well. But beneath that gruff exterior was a man defined by generosity, loyalty, and quiet compassion.

A Life of Service to His Community

Jim devoted decades of service to the Brooklawn Fire Department, often driving the ambulance and responding to emergency calls late at night. He supported local police, youth sports teams, and was frequently the first to offer financial help to Brooklawn and Gloucester City residents who had fallen on hard times. He didn’t talk about the good he did; he simply did it.
