It was a case of the officers word against his. If he had gone to trial he could well have been convicted and have a sex crime on his record. What defense can a person offer up? The judge - and many juries - will most likely take the officers word as gospel.

I'd want to know a whole lot more about the particular officer and his background.

Do you have any idea how bad a cop has to screw up to get put on the airport restroom fruit patrol? I know one state cop, in his state's top 5 for writing speeding tickets, the happiest little highway cruiser in the world in his state-issued unmarked Mustang, until he gave his state's Secretary of State's wife a ticket for running 90. Within the week he was back in a blue-and-white marked cruiser, with the new duty of counting the doors on the highway rest area toilets to make sure the stall doors hadn't been stolen.
