INDIANAPOLIS -- A lieutenant with the Marion County Sheriff's Department has been demoted after an internal hazing investigation.

James Martin, previously the commander of the Critical Emergency Response Team, was demoted to sergeant after he violated four departmental rules -- truthfulness, general conduct, conduct unbecoming and chain of command, according to a department investigation, 6News' Joanna Massee reported.

Officials said the allegations against Martin involved subjecting newcomers to abusive or humiliating conduct or ridicule.

So far, no one with the team has made their allegations public, but sources told 6News that one woman was slapped repeatedly until she cried.

Based on the violations, Martin was demoted on Tuesday and transferred from his position at the Marion County Jail to the Arrestee Processing Center.

"Hazing will not be tolerated by the Marion County Sheriff's Department," jail spokesman Julio Fernandez said in a statement.

Fernandez said the investigation did not implicate any other deputies and that no criminal charges will be filed.

When reached by phone, City-County Council Public Safety Committee Chairman Ben Hunter said, "I expect the sheriff's department and (Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department) to be completely transparent in complaints and discipline to the public."
