A Port Barre police officer faces a third-degree rape charge after a woman he stopped for speeding said he coerced her into having sex in exchange for leniency.
Darwin Fontenot, 21, of Port Barre, admitted to having sex with the woman, according to a police department release describing the March incident. Deputies charged Fontenot with malfeasance and third-degree rape, defined as sexual activity between an authority figure and someone in custody.
“The public holds law enforcement to a high standard and so do I," Port Barre Police Chief Deon Boudreaux said in a statement. "Whether the sexual interaction was consensual or not doesn’t justify it. I will not tolerate such unprofessional behavior from our police officers."
Fontenot was released Saturday on bond. Boudreaux said he placed the officer on "administrative leave until termination."
Oh, sorry. Forgot to mention in the title that the cop is black. Didn't see much about this on cnn and LeBron James hasn't commented on this...yet.
Probably doesn't know about it.
