Nashville, TN — A former Nashville police officer, Sean Herman, has been sentenced after a year-long legal process following a disturbing incident caught on video involving an OnlyFans star, Jordin. Herman, 35, pled guilty to official misconduct in Nashville criminal court, resulting in one year of supervised probation.
Incident Details and Public Reaction
Herman was fired from the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department (MNPD) in May 2024, just one day after detectives became aware of the explicit video. The footage showed Jordin, who had been pulled over by Herman in what appeared to be a routine traffic stop. The situation quickly escalated, with Jordin exposing her chest and inviting Herman to touch her. She then proceeded to grab his crotch over his pants.
“That was one of the most outrageous, disrespectful acts that a person here could do,” said Don Aaron, an MNPD spokesperson, referring to the incident. “By disrespectful, I mean to all the MNPD employees and this agency.” (source)
Despite the officer’s face not being visible in the video, a MNPD patch was visible on his shoulder, which helped confirm his identity.
Jordin Expresses Frustration Over Legal Delays
Jordin expressed her frustration with how long it took for the case to be resolved, claiming that prosecutors “pushed the case four times” due to difficulties in finding solid evidence that Herman’s actions were for “monetary gain.”
- Jordin’s Response:
- She decorated her Porsche GT3 with a “Metro Flashing Unit” wrap to publicly protest the department’s handling of the case.
- She emphasized the delay in pursuing the case, criticizing the legal system for its failure to prove Herman’s motives.
Legal Outcome and Plea Agreement
Herman entered a “best interest” plea, which means he did not contest the charges while maintaining his factual innocence. In exchange, the judge granted him judicial diversion, allowing him to request the dismissal and expungement of the charge from his record after completing probation.
Herman’s lawyer confirmed that he was granted one year of probation and that the second charge against him was dismissed.
Public Outcry and Ongoing Debate
This case has sparked considerable debate in the community regarding accountability for law enforcement officers, especially in instances where their actions reflect poorly on the department. The MNPD has continued to distance itself from Herman’s actions, calling the incident a violation of trust and integrity within the police force.
