After a Crimeline tip came in last May, a prolonged investigation occurred which looked into two Orange County deputies, who were accused of having sex on duty while on Walt Disney World property, as well as at other locations.
Officer Skyelar Miller and her supervisor, Robert Garner, both resigned after an internal investigation was launched, leading investigators to find out the two were in a relationship.
During the investigation, they checked the drive cam and bodycam footage, which resulted in finding out both were turned off at the same time and at the same location, leading to a further investigation.
Investigation Launches
According to WFTV, after investigators reviewed the records, testimonies, and other evidence, they found Corporal Garner and Deputy Miller engaged in consensual, sexual intercourse while they were on duty multiple times — one of those times being at Disney Springs located on Walt Disney World property.
Per the report:
“After a comprehensive review of available records, witness testimony, and other acquired evidence, the investigation revealed the following: Based on their sworn testimony, Corporal Garner and Deputy Miller met on numerous occasions throughout 2021 and 2022 and engaged in consensual, sexual intercourse while they were on duty, in their capacities as sworn members of the Orange County Sheriff’s Office. The locations varied and included Deputy Miller’s residence, a church parking lot, and Disney Springs. Evidence gathered during this investigation substantiated elements of their testimony. Specifically, DriveCAM records, which supported timelines and locations. In addition, Axon records confirmed they deactivated their body-worn cameras at times and locations when their patrol vehicles were in the same geographical areas.”
Corporal Garner told investigators when he gave his testimony that the reason he turned his bodycam off was so he could take his uniform off.

Deputy Miller also revealed that said she didn’t disclose their relationship to her superiors, which both officers admitted was wrong.
Investigation Finds A Third Officer Is Involved
Orange County Deputy Miller also revealed that she was having sex with another officer, Angel Mendoza, as well, due to the fact that Mendoza knew about Miller’s and Garner’s relationship, and she was hoping having sex with him would keep him quiet.
Miller and Mendoza also had sex while on duty at Disney and in a storage closet.
Per the investigation report, “Based on their sworn testimony, Deputy Miller and Deputy Mendoza met on numerous occasions throughout 2021 and 2022 and engaged in consensual, sexual intercourse while they were on duty, in their capacities as sworn members of the Orange County Sheriff’s Office.”
All three officers resigned.
Sheriff John Mina Releases Statement Following Investigation
In total, the investigation report was 51 pages and goes back to early 2021. When speaking to the investigation, Orange County Sheriff John Mina said, “At the Orange County Sheriff’s Office, we hold our deputies to the highest ethical standards. Engaging in this behavior on duty – when they should have been responding to calls and protecting our community – is unacceptable.”
He continued, “These former deputies are not worthy of the uniform worn by those that serve with integrity and honor.”
