Former Police Chief Gets Only Misdemeanor Charge, After Compelling a Teenager To Perform Oral Sex On Him

A former police deputy chief has been charged with just a misdemeanor after he compelled a 19-year old-girl, who he claimed to had marijuana in her car, to perform oral sex on him.

The incident took place in February 2013 at Douglas County-Nebraska. Cory Cooper confronted the victim and her boyfriend inside a car at a park, and after searching the car, he claimed to have found marijuana and demanded that in order not to press charges against them, the girl would have to perform oral sex on him.

Cooper then made her boyfriend walk down to a nearby lake, and removed his pants for the girl to perform oral sex on him.

“It’s kind of like you’re sitting in the back of a cop car. And you can’t get out. And there’s somebody standing there with their pants unzipped like what are you gonna do?” the victim told investigators.

But after more than two years of investigations, prosecutors have said he has been charged with a misdemeanor. This means that he will not go on trial for the charge of first-degree sexual assault. That is a felony that could have landed him in prison for twenty-five years.

He has since lost his job and prosecutors say that he has tried to tamper with evidence to cover up his crime. But notwithstanding the fact that he has lost his job, pundits say he will still be able to possess a firearm and that there is nothing prohibiting him from being a police officer again after he serves the time for his minor crime. It is believed that he still has his law enforcement certificate, even though this is expected to be stripped from him if he is sentenced in June this year.

Since prosecutors made the announcement that Cooper will be facing a misdemeanor charge, lots of criticisms and anger have been heaped on the police by activists and local residents.

What has even angered many is that another officer from the same area- Scott Antoniak served no jail time after he was convicted of first-degree sexual assault by forcing prostitutes to perform oral sex on him in exchange for not getting arrested, similar to Cooper’s case.

Some say that the American justice system is not fair to citizens, while others say that the law was created to protect those in authority… to the detriment of the overall interest of the nation.

The police have suffered several hits to their credibility across the US in recent months, in cases ranging from the brutal killing of unarmed black men, the physical abusing of minors, and the sexual assaulting and harassing of teenagers.

If the Justice Department does not change its current laws, to mandate harsher punishments for officers who violate the law with impunity, it is likely that the police in the US might become the public enemy instead of being the protector of the innocent.

It is only when an officer is made to suffer for the crime he/she has committed that it will serve as a deterrent to others. We will continue to expose all the wrong-doing of the police. We serve the public interest. Expect us!

  1. “Some say that the American justice system is not fair to citizens, while others say that the law was created to protect those in authority…”
    Both are most-likely or definitely true.

  2. If I was the father of this young woman I can confidently say justice would be served quietly one dark night. If the justice system can’t or won’t police its own then someone else will.
