Hundreds of officers lose licenses over sex misconduct

[Voice of Reason 10,298]

Not exactly "news", since it covers a span of recent years, but still pretty good investigative reporting.

"OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) Flashing lights pierced the black of night, and the big white letters made clear it was the police. The woman pulled over was a daycare worker in her 50s headed home after playing dominoes with friends. She felt she had nothing to hide, so when the Oklahoma City officer accused her of erratic driving, she did as directed.

She would later tell a judge she was splayed outside the patrol car for a pat-down, made to lift her shirt to prove she wasn't hiding anything, then to pull down her pants when the officer still wasn't convinced. He shined his flashlight between her legs, she said, then ordered her to sit in the squad car and face him as he towered above. His gun in sight, she said she pleaded "No, sir" as he unzipped his fly and exposed himself with a hurried directive.

"Come on," the woman, identified in police reports as J.L., said she was told before she began giving him oral sex. "I don't have all night."

The accusations are undoubtedly jolting, and yet they reflect a betrayal of the badge that has been repeated time and again across the country."

I guess some would blame the woman at being at fault. She shouldn't be out late at night.

Like most rape stats, these are probably under-reported. Scary to think how many times this may be happening.

Just like what Bill Cosby did and wasn't paid enough attention until years later.
