"Oklahoma trooper jailed on sex assault complaints" Associated Press September 16, 2014
OKLAHOMA CITY — An Oklahoma state trooper was arrested Monday on charges of kidnapping, rape, and other crimes after three women alleged he sexually assaulted them while he was on duty.
Trooper Eric Roberts, 42, was arrested at his home in Sapulpa and taken to the Creek County jail. He was released Monday afternoon after posting $66,000 bail.
An internal investigation began after a woman called the Highway Patrol on July 23 and reported that Roberts raped her after pulling over her vehicle, said Colonel Rick Adams, chief of the patrol.
‘‘This is obviously not a pleasant discussion for us to have, but we think it’s very important . . . that the public has confidence in us knowing that we police our own,’’ Adams said. ‘‘This particular matter sickens us as an agency.’’
What is this, the NFL!?
Roberts has been suspended since July 24, when he was forced to turn over his gun and badge, and the patrol has started proceedings to fire him, Adams said.
Roberts’s arrest comes just weeks after an Oklahoma City police officer was accused of sexually assaulting at least eight women while on duty. In that case, Daniel Holtzclaw has pleaded not guilty to 16 felony counts, including rape and sexual battery.
In Roberts’s case, after interviewing the first victim, Adams said, troopers seized Roberts’s patrol vehicle and other evidence from the location where the woman said Roberts raped her and submitted it for DNA testing.
