Unfortunately, this was not an isolated incident, with detectives uncovering previous acts of domestic violence and the destruction of the victim’s phone, according to details furnished by the Broward Sheriff’s Office (BSO). Saintilus, who had been with the department since 2018, was subsequently taken into custody and awaits due process while on unpaid administrative leave.
