To Serve and Steal

A former Orange County Sheriff’s Department deputy who was previously indicted by a grand jury for stealing guns and other items from a dead man’s home is now facing new charges for stealing credit cards from the Yorba Linda residence of a deceased woman. 

On Aug. 19, 2020, Steven Hortz, a 12-year veteran of the Sheriff’s Department, was called out to the Yorba Linda home, where he allegedly took three credit cards. He is accused of attempting to use the cards to make thousands of dollars of unauthorized online purchases, the O.C. District Attorney’s Office said in a news release Friday.
