A Los Angeles police detective said she was sexually assaulted by a fellow officer and that her supervisors ignored her reports of physical abuse and blackmail threats, according to a lawsuit filed Wednesday.
LAPD Detective Ysabel Villegas announced legal action on Wednesday against the Los Angeles Police Department.
Villegas alleged Wednesday she had been coerced into engaging in a sexual act because of Reedy’s threat to reveal the explicit photos publicly. Villegas reported Reedy’s behavior to several “senior LAPD officers” — including her supervisor in the Robbery-Homicide Division as well as to her husband, former Assistant Chief Jorge Villegas — who then “violated the law and LAPD policy by failing to report Officer Reedy,” the lawsuit says.
When Ysabel Villegas attempted to end the relationship in 2017, Reedy began threatening to show the explicit photographs to her children and husband, according to the lawsuit. He also sent her profanity-laced text messages that included demands for sex. Jorge Villegas eventually received the images in a text message from Reedy, and the photos later circulated throughout the LAPD, the lawsuit said.
