Oklahoma ex-patrolman to be arraigned for traffic-stop sexual assaults | Reuters

This is the clown who tried to have the charges dismissed by claiming that the women weren't in his custody so they were free to do what they wanted and apparently what they wanted was to have sex with him.

According to the OHP, investigators discovered Roberts had turned his dashboard camera off during six traffic stops, including the one listed in the federal lawsuit.

That should be a felony right there.

As for the rapes, he should receive a life sentence, or an effective one.

But I won't be holding my breath.

Yes, multiple random women agreed to have sex with a guy they didn't know after he pulled them over. Likely story.

The excuses people make never cease to amaze me.

I tend to think that in the current state of events, he'll probably do some serious time...which he should.

If he gets a jury of his peers he'll get a slap on the wrist....

The slap on the wrist would be determined by a sentencing judge, not a jury.

A jury in a case like this can only either acquit, find the defendant guilty or be a hung jury.

Sentencing (wrist slapping) will be handled by a judge.

Just a few bad apples. /s

If convicted, he will get what amounts to a life sentence, as he should. Wait and see.

This is an interesting. What is the actual penalty for police who turn off cameras?

Tampering with evidence is a misdemeanor in most states . violation of policy is a fireable offense. Destroying evidence to commit a felony may ALSO be a felony in some jurisdictions.

Stap up..another opening...

I think this is a recycled story by the way...but hey op..have at it again...
