A former New Orleans police officer, who is accused of grooming and raping a 14-year-old girl months after he escorted her to a hospital to receive a rape kit, is facing a federal charge, the DOJ said.
A former New Orleans police officer is facing a federal charge related to the alleged sexual assault of a victim, the Justice Department announced on Thursday.
While acting in his role as a New Orleans police officer, 55-year-old Rodney Vicknair allegedly committed a civil rights violation when he sexually assaulted a victim two years ago, the department said.This is not the first time allegations of this nature have been made against Vicknair.In May 2020, Vicknair, in his capacity as an officer, transported the unnamed teen to the hospital to receive an examination following a rape.
The lawsuit, filed in a U.S. District Court in Louisiana, also states that Vicknair"had a long list of citizen complaints of unprofessional and illegal conduct." The mother is also suing the city of New Orleans, in part, for keeping Vicknair on the force despite these concerns against him, the lawsuit says.
