A sheriff's deputy in Lake County, Colo., has been placed on one week of unpaid leave after reportedly using a Taser gun on 30 students at a Lake County High School career fair Thursday.  According to Sheriff Edward J. Holte, Deputy John Ortega agreed to demonstrate the electroshock weapon on students after they repeatedly asked him to do so. 

"We are very disappointed with the sheriff's department right now," Cathy Beck, the principal of Lake County High School, told AOL News.
