Detectives from Ventura County Sheriff's Office allegedly recognized one of the men in the footage damaging the sign as Darrin Stone, a sheriff's office employee who had been assigned as a service technician at the pre-trial detention facility in Ventura, a non-sworn position.

Stone was captured on the homeowner's video slashing the sign on June 13 and 19, the sheriff's office said. Stone was off-duty at the time of both incidents, and received a misdemeanor citation for vandalism and was placed on paid administrative leave. He could not be reached for comment.

An investigative assistant in the Ventura County District Attorney's Office was also cited for vandalism allegedly being captured on video vandalizing the sign. The sheriff's office said on May 31, Craig Anderson cut down the BLM sign, noticed the homeowner's surveillance camera, and left the scene.


A third man, Jeffrey Moore, was also arrested for allegedly defacing the sign on June 11. The sheriff's office said he was identified on the homeowner's video footage by the company name and phone number that was "prominently displayed on his vehicle."

CNN was unable to reach Moore for comment.


Andy Meyers, the homeowner where the sign was erected, said his son, a college student, created it to show support for the Black Lives Matter movement.

"None of us expected it to be vandalized. But to have it defaced by people we've always taught him he's supposed to trust has been a terrible lesson to learn," Meyers told CNN. "Black Lives Matter. Period. He put up a sign to support a movement. Ironically, their efforts to take it down have only led to more visibility for it."

Meyers said he and his son decided to install a security camera near the sign after someone attempted to take it down, capturing multiple acts of vandalism.
