NYC: Teenager Says NYPD Officers Raped Her While Handcuffed in Police Car

HeadlineOct 19, 2017

In New York City, two NYPD police officers are being investigated for rape, after an 18-year-old girl said the two undercover officers handcuffed her during a traffic stop, put her in the back of an unmarked police car, and then—while she was still handcuffed—one of the cops raped her, and both forced her to perform oral sex on them, she claims. Testing shows the DNA of the two police officers, Richard Hall and Eddie Martins, was found on the teenager. The two cops are claiming the act was consensual.
