Magee has allegedly been involved in a number of assaults stemming back to 2016.

His first charge, resulting from a 2016 incident, came in July of 2017 but was withdrawn after the case successfully went through mediation.

In April 2019, Magee was charged with two counts of assault for incidents inside the station’s detention area that took place on Sept. 26 and 27, 2018.

One of the assaults involved a 13-year-old and the other involved a 42-year-old man. Magee pleaded guilty in the assault of the boy.
