At a press conference on TuesdayPolk County Sheriff Grady Judd detailed that DiPrima was in the “Sunshine State” for a conference Organized by the American Polygraph Association.
At the start of the exchange, DiPrima, 49, kind of freaked out and cut off communication.
But, the next day, he contacted the undercover again and agreed on a place to meet the alleged prostitute.
Arriving at the scene in an unmarked police vehicle, he asked what he thought would be his sexual date for $120 for the encounter. The officer had been communicating by text with the investigator.
DiPrima carried Bud Lights for him and a pack of White Claws for the supposed companion.
Officers proceeded to arrest the agent.
According to information released by the sheriff’s office, the night before he had been in communication with a prostitute for another meeting for $200 that apparently did not materialize.
DiPrima had been with police in Georgia for 30 years. and graduated from the FBI (Bureau of Federal Investigations) training academy.
At this time, he remains suspended pending the resolution of his criminal case in Polk County.
