RICHLAND, Wash. (AP) - A Benton County sheriff’s deputy accused of illegally using steroids has resigned.

The sheriff’s office says Deputy Shane Benningfield resigned Monday with his case being considered by the prosecutor’s office.

A person he used to date had accused Benningfield in February and detectives found apparent steroids at his home.
