ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. -- An Orange County woman says she was attacked and pepper-sprayed by an apartment complex security guard. When she complained to Eyewitness News, it was found that Jonathan Shaddix was a fake and had a criminal record.
Eyewitness News uncovered Jonathan Shaddix's long rap sheet. It goes back to when he was 11 years old. He is a convicted felon, yet the same man wore a badge, carried a baton and helped send an innocent resident to jail.
To the Department of Corrections, 22-year-old Jonathon Shaddix is known as inmate number X-55-169, but to residents at the Clarona Groves Apartments he was thought of as a security guard.
"He had the whole armor. He had on security, security shoes, pants, the whole uniform," said
Shaddix also carried a badge and had plenty of bravado. Kendrika Dorn said she got into a civil argument with an actual security guard and then Shaddix attacked.
"After he started cursing me out, I just turned around and left and out of nowhere he just chased me, struck me with a baton and sprayed me with pepper spray," Dorn told Eyewitness News.
Dorn was thrown to the ground, leaving bruises on her face. Shaddix called Orange County deputies, who then put her under arrest.
"It makes me feel like I'm nothing. I'm the ground they walk on. They beat me, chase me to my house and then throw me in jail," Dorn said.
After a night in jail, the charges against Dorn were dropped, but now state officials are looking into Shaddix. They plan to charge him with falsely impersonating a watchman and carrying a weapon, a violation of his probation.
Shaddix has long criminal history. When he was 11, he was accused of conspiring to commit murder and later accused of making a fake mail bomb just after September 11. Shaddix was also arrested as recently as Halloween night for driving with a suspended license and is currently in custody.
"I know that justice will prevail. I know he will be dealt with," Dorn said.
Shaddix is currently in prison for his probation violation.
According to Safe Security and Investigations, Inc., the company that patrols the Clarona Groves Apartments, Shaddix never worked for them; he just liked to socialize with the guards there and carry his fake security badge. They've now been told not to talk to him.
