Former Officer Arrested on Official Misconduct Charges for Appearing in Adult Video

June 13, 2024 – Former Nashville police officer Sean Herman was arrested at his Sumner County home Thursday on two counts of felony official misconduct for taking part in the production of an adult video while on duty.

Chief John Drake fired Herman, 33, on May 9, one day after Specialized Investigations Division detectives discovered the video and identified him as the person in an MNPD uniform, seen in the video from the chest down, who took part in a mock traffic stop in an OnlyFans skit during which he groped the exposed breast of the female driver. The investigation found that the video was made on the evening of April 26 in a Madison area warehouse parking lot while Herman was on duty as a patrol officer in the Madison Precinct.

Chief Drake directed that the investigation continue after Herman was fired, resulting in his indictment. A Criminal Court judge set Herman’s bond at $3,000.

Herman was employed by the police department for three years.
