The women were teenagers and grandmothers. Most were living on the margins. All of them were black. And during a month-long trial that became a symbol of police predation, they formed a bleak parade of 13 witnesses who accused a former Oklahoma City officer of using his badge to coerce sex acts and rape.

On Thursday, after 45 hours of deliberation, a jury convicted Daniel Holtzclaw, 28, on five counts of rape and 13 other counts of sexual assault, including six of sexual battery.

The convictions included four for first-degree rape, which carries a possible sentence of life in prison. He will appear in court on 21 January for sentencing.

Holtzclaw was cleared of a further 18 of the 36 charges he faced, including rape, sexual battery, burglary, indecent exposure and stalking.

Asian or Pacific Islander. The black community professional victim population was very upset he wasn’t a whitey.

There must have been compelling evidence.

As I said before, if he was guilty, I wanted the book tossed at him.

To that end, it seems like it probably will be.

Excellent.

If some guy pulled some of that on my wife, mom, sister, or niece, I would be a very furious individual.
