"&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Baltimore Ravens security head Darren Sanders has been charged with a fourth-degree sex offense, the&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;Baltimore Sun'&lt;/em&gt;s Justin Fenton reports&lt;em&gt;.&lt;/em&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;Sun&lt;/em&gt;, citing court records and a law enforcement source, reports Sanders was charged Tuesday in relation to allegations made on Dec. 14. There were no details available about the case or the nature of the allegations.&amp;nbsp;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In Maryland, a fourth-degree sex offense carries a maximum punishment of one year in prison, a $1,000 fine or both.&amp;nbsp;Sanders was not arrested and will be in court on Feb. 9.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The &lt;em&gt;Sun&lt;/em&gt;'s Aaron Wilson reports&amp;nbsp;that Sanders \"has been placed on paid leave while the charges against him are pending.\"\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sanders, a former Baltimore homicide detective, has been with the Ravens for more than 10 years. He headed up the organization's investigation into former running back Ray Rice's domestic violence arrest.&amp;nbsp;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In September, ESPN reported that an Atlantic City police officer watched the tape of Rice striking his then-fiancee, Janay Palmer, in a casino elevator and described what he saw to Sanders. Sanders then relayed that information to the Ravens.&amp;nbsp;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;- Dan Gartland&lt;/em&gt;\r\n&lt;/p&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
