Extorting Sex With A Badge
http://www.philly.com/mld/inquirer/news/local/15263711.htm

Philadelphia Police Officer James Fallon spent many midnight shifts on patrol - not for crime, but for sex.

His partner, Timothy Carre, says he tried to warn their bosses, but nobody paid attention - not until the night Fallon and Carre stopped a stripper getting off her shift, forced her into their patrol car and, she says, took turns raping her in the darkness near I-95.

The officers are now off the force, convicted of sex crimes, but the city is still confronting the consequences of that 2002 attack.

Investigators found a string of other women who say they were victimized by the pair, and a lawsuit filed by the dancer recently brought to light dozens of other accusations of sexual misconduct involving Philadelphia police from 1992 to 2002. The department dismissed most as groundless, or unprovable.

In another, still-open case obtained by The Inquirer, the department allowed an investigation into a complaint of a forced sexual display in a police lockup to languish for years. No one has been disciplined.

1. One of the court officers I work with
Was caught getting a BJ from one of the female inmates. He is still on the job. I believe that was before all relations with inmates was made statutory rape.

5. It think this happens a lot more often than we know
Rape is about power. How many fucking times do we have to say it?

3. Carre tried to warn their bosses
But he participated in at least one of the rapes, after the supposed warning attempt.

That seems awfully inconsistent. Human beings are full of conflicting motives, but that still seems exceptionally inconsistent.

4. Disavowed their plea now too. Say their too "buff" to need to rape anyone
>>>"Don't get me wrong, I wasn't an angel," Fallon said, adding that he is now faithful to his wife. "You've seen the pictures of me... . I'm built. I work out five days a week. I was a Marine. I'm the pretty boy. I have the image."

Fallon now claims that the dancer voluntarily had sex with him and Carre and that he pleaded guilty to assault only to avoid a trial.

"Why would I have to threaten anybody? I have the looks. I always did. I don't need to force myself on anybody for anything.

"Being honest with you, women do like cops," he said. "Women love guys in uniform."

Carre also disavows his plea, saying he did nothing more than touch the woman's leg and make a sexual remark.<<<
