A former Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office deputy has been arrested on child sex charges.
“We uncovered a predator that had never been arrested for incidents that took place years ago and it appears that he found another child to victimize in 2014,” Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu said in a statement.
Michael Valles, 44, was arrested Thursday.

Valles allegedly had sexual contact multiple times with a 14-year-old girl last year. Sexually explicit text messages from Valles were found on the girl’s phone.
Valles is also accused of an unspecified child sex crime in 2011, when he was employed by MCSO. Though he was investigated by his employer at the time, no charges were filed. PCSO said it was later learned Valles still had access to the victim.
