Herman, 33, was terminated from his position on May 9, shortly after investigators identified him in a video posted on the adult platform OnlyFans, where he appeared from the chest down in his police uniform.
Following Herman’s dismissal, Nashville Police Chief John Drake instructed detectives to extend their investigation, leading to Herman’s indictment. After being taken into custody, Herman was able to secure his release from jail early Friday morning by posting bond, according to jail records.
Legal representation for Herman has not been identified, and attempts to contact him directly were unsuccessful. His involvement in the controversial video occurred during his third year with the Nashville police. The department explained that Herman participated in a simulated traffic stop for an OnlyFans skit, during which he inappropriately touched a woman portraying a driver.
The incident reportedly took place in late April in a warehouse parking lot, at a time when Herman was scheduled to be on patrol duty in the Madison precinct.
