Ryan Macklin, a six-year veteran of the Prince George's County
Police Department, was taken into custody Monday evening, according
to a news release from the department.
He has been suspended without pay, the department said, and has been
charged with first-degree rape, second-degree rape, perverted
practice, second-degree assault and fourth-degree sex offense.
It's unclear whether Macklin, who is to make a court appearance
later Tuesday via closed-circuit television, has an attorney.
Police said Macklin, 29, pulled the woman over at about 1 a.m. on
Thursday.
The woman told police that the officer allegedly attempted to
touch her breast before ordering her to move her car behind a
store, according to charging documents. Behind the store, the
officer allegedly forced the woman to perform oral sex on him
and told her he wanted to have sex with her, the documents said.
The alleged assault was interrupted by a witness whom the woman
had called earlier, the charging documents said. The officer
returned to his cruiser and left the scene. The witness later
corroborated some of the woman's account of the assault, which
was also backed up by video evidence.
Police said Macklin was on duty and in uniform, and driving a
marked police cruiser at the time.
Prince George's County Police Chief Hank Stawinski said at a
news conference that the woman came forward "several hours"
after the incident with the encouragement of friends. Police
said they do not know why Macklin allegedly targeted the driver.
"The charges against this officer are highly troubling,"
Stawinski said. "Officers take an oath to protect others, not to
abuse their authority in order to victimize someone. Those who
live and work in Prince George's County deserve the very best
from the men and women of this department."
Stawinski said police have information that suggests "there may
be additional people impacted by this officer's conduct." As a
result, police
ask anyone with information about this incident, Macklin or any
related conduct to call 301-772-4795.
Macklin is assigned to the Bureau of Patrol, police said.
According to the department's website, he was honored as patrol
officer of the month at least two times in 2014, in
March and
September.

Sexual assault and abuse of power is rarely ever brought to public
attention.
In the world of Police, sexual assault takes many forms.
Its effectively human trafficking except generally and like the police
the world over, some members of the Ottawa police officers get their sex
for free.
It's systemic and habitual.
It works like this. Any female wanting a favour from a police officer
knows what to do.
Any police officer wanting to get sex in exchange for a favour also
knows what to do.
Ottawa Police lay charges and stay charges based on gender, and its
common knowledge that after a cop does a favour, he will return for his
favour to be returned.
That often ends up in a relationship of convenience, a corrupt
relationship, that brings the administration of justice into ill repute.
Then there us Constable
Van T NGUYEN Badge No. 952
This corrupt evidence fabricating rotten cop visited a very violent
female
while on duty with out any reason months after he fabricated evidence
to
NOT charge her.
NGUYEN colluded with two other Rotten cops of the Ottawa Police.
Cst. SAMUAL
W. SMITH Badge No. 880
and Former
Det Now Sgt. Peter Van Der Zander.
Van Der Zander. was promoted AFTER the Ottawa Police knew he
fabricated evidence, as did several of the Crown Attorneys of
Ottawa and the Local Children's Aid Society who all colluded in have
charges stayed and charges laid to suit their political reasons to
protect
Van Der Zander, Constable
Van T NGUYEN Badge No. 952
and
Cst. SAMUAL
W. SMITH
from charges of Obstructing Justice and fabricating evidence.
Everyone in Ottawa should take a careful note of the names of these
Rotten Ottawa Cops.
Det
Sgt. Peter Van Der Zander.
Take a good look at this creep who actually fabricates evidence
to NOT charge violent women.
His unpublished number ends up in the hands of those seeking
a favour. In return, he intimidates, harasses, fabricates evidence and
brings discredit to
all the other Ottawa Police officers who have more ethics.
If you have been a victim of any of these officers please email
