Former Clerk Arrested on Child Abuse Charges | Boise News
Description
Michael Allen Caruso, Palm Beach County’s newly appointed clerk of courts and former state rep, has been arrested on shocking charges including kidnapping and molestation of a child under five — allegations that reportedly occurred multiple times last year. Governor DeSantis swiftly suspended him from office and appointed an interim clerk, sending a clear message: public trust demands accountability. The arrest followed disturbing reports from the child’s family, with incidents allegedly taking place during a soccer game and on a cruise ship. This isn’t Caruso’s first brush with such accusations — his ex-wife previously leveled similar claims during their divorce, which he denied. Now, as he campaigns for re-election, the attorney for the victim called it a profound betrayal, while the governor’s office made it clear: no one is above the law — not even those in public service.
