The sheriff sexually assaults Sophie as an attempt to bait Grover Ohta to come out of hiding in her house. It's brief, as Ohta was never there in the first place and the sheriff let's her go shortly after, regardless it is a jarring scene (about 1:08:20 to 1:9:20)

Being set in the South shortly before and during US involvement of World War II after Pearl Harbor, both anti-Black and anti-Asian (specifically anti-Japanese) racism is depicted in the film, including usage of slurs several times throughout the film.
