ORANGE — The Orange police officer who was arrested last month for allegedly pretending to be his twin brother to dupe a woman into sex has resigned from the department, police said in a statement Tuesday. Probationary Officer Jared Rohrig, 25, of 7 Flax Mill Lane, Milford, who is charged with first-degree sexual assault and criminal impersonation, has been on paid administrative leave from the Orange Police Department since July. Rohrig submitted his resignation and it was accepted by the Board of Police Commissioners on Monday, police said. “Jared Rohrig’s decision to resign from his position as probationary officer was in his best interest as well as the best interests of the town of Orange, Police Chief Robert Gagne said in a statement released Tuesday morning. Rohrig’s attorney, Edward J. Gavin of Bridgeport, has said his client intends to plead not guilty at his next court date, which is Oct. 7. The arrest warrant affidavit in the case says the alleged victim in the case told Milford police she realized the man she believed to be Joseph did not have a tattoo of a cowboy on his buttocks and was therefore Jared, and she tried to leave but allegedly was forced back on the bed and sexually assaulted. The assault is alleged to have occurred late July 18 and into early July 19 at the Flax Mill Lane home where both Jared and Joseph live with their family. The home is owned by Milford Board of Education Minority Leader Joanne Rohrig, R-1, who is Jared and Joseph Rohrig’s mother. Joanne Rohrig announced last month that she would not seek re-election, so she could spend more time with her family.

I have read this article three times and still don't quite understand the full story. Perhaps more enlightened Freepers can give me a better idea! Am I understanding that this police officer really does have a twin brother, and pretended to be the twin in order to have sex with this woman?

I'm not trying to poke fun at a crime like sexual assault, but this story has too many weird aspects. The cowboy tattoo on the butt is just....hmmm.

Criminal impersonation?

There is such a thing? Why are illegal aliens not prosecuted?

I always make sure my cowboy tattoo is on my ass before leaving out on a date.

That’s a poorly written story. They’ll let anyone be a “journalist” these days!

Yes. She is the twin brother's girlfried, and evidently the lack of a "cowboy tatoo on his buttocks" gave him away. (snicker)

I’m just going to go out on a limb here and guess that there was a lot of alcohol involved in this story. Why is this chick hanging out in a hot tub alone with twin brothers in the first place? And why do 25-yr-old twins live at home with their mom? And why would someone get a cowboy tattooed on their butt cheek, and so many other questions....

“cowboy tatoo on my ass”

Don’t leave home without it.

My brother and I look a lot alike.

One of his girlfriends thought I was he and what was I supposed to do?

I’ll never forget the look on her face when she said, “I thought you were circumcised!”

Bad Joke!

I was traumatized last night when I had sex and then realized she WASN’T my wife’s twin sister!

Deconstructing the story:

City of Orange, CT Probationary Officer Jared Rohrig lives in Milford, CT with his twin brother at their mother's home. Officer Rohrig agrees to bring a female (possibly he is her parole officer?) at his mother's house for sex. Officer Rohrig and brother Joseph agree that Joseph will pretend to be Jared for the "date". Female finds out, and is assaulted/raped by Joseph when she turns down his advances. Officer Rohrig is now an embarrasment to the Orance Police Dept. and resigns.

I didn’t read the story, but am just fascinated at the headline. I would love to see what an orange cop looks like!

The tattoo was the only way their mom could tell them apart.

LOL! The lack of tatoo was a giveaway.

Maybe you can get paid time off from work under ObamaCare for the trauma.

Funny aside I want this POS’s cert’s and commission pulled so he can’t wind up as pissed off po’lice in poohville getting back at the populace for catching his criminal cowboy tattooed ass at his last position of trust !

Sure wish there was a national register of fired LEO’s with POC and reasons so local hiring guru’s don’t get some other communities crap on em .

Law Enforcement needs house cleaning to return it to Peace Officer status IMO.
