Arizona state Senator Tony Navarrete has announced his resignation from public office on Tuesday following accusations of sexual conduct with a child and molestation of a minor.

Navarrete was arrested last Thursday and faces multiple counts of sex crimes against two children. Navarrete was released from the Maricopa County Jail on a $50,000 bond Saturday morning. Following the announcement of Navarrete’s arrest Thursday, lawmakers and state leaders reacted, with many calling for Navarrete to resign.

“These are incredibly disturbing allegations,” said Secretary of State Katie Hobbs in a tweet. “These are deeply disturbing charges,” Hoffman said in her tweet. “We must hold our elected leaders to the highest standards.”
