True Crime for Survivors

Albuquerque Police Officer Accused of Sexual Misconduct Claims it Was Consensual

Apparently the thing that gets police officers like Daniel Holtzclaw -- and now Liam King -- in trouble is their sheer sense of entitlement to sexual violence.  They're comfortable talking about their behavior when asked, as if they aren't trained in criminal investigation.  Right?  It suggests they either (a) don't believe it's a problem in the first place, or (b) assume that the other cops don't believe it's a problem.  Both Holtzclaw and King seem to fully expect their ridiculous stories to get an, "Okey doke!" from the lady IA detective.

KRQE.com has more coverage.

In the above-linked video, Officer Liam King explains how he stopped a citizen, "Because I'm bored, it's a hot day."  This caused her to volunteer to open up her bra, according to him, even before he lied and told her he had cause to arrest her.  He says he later noticed his body cam wasn't on. -- whoopsie. 

This IA detective didn't give him the full Kim Davis.  She didn't let him keep on talking and talking.  She mentioned after only a few minutes that you can't just stop someone who hasn't committed a crime, turn off your body cam, put your fingers down the back of their pants, and have them lift their bra up.  Mr. King then terminated the interview.

Mr. King is currently on administrative leave and facing charges.
