LOS ANGELES — Authorities investigating allegations of rape against a Los Angeles police officer discovered evidence that he had committed a second, earlier sexual assault through DNA testing, police said Wednesday.
The officer, William Rodriguez, 33, a 10-year veteran of the police department who was assigned to the traffic division in the San Fernando Valley, was arrested Tuesday on two counts of forcible rape, with a special allegation of multiple victims, in connection with a report of a sexual assault last November, the Los Angeles County district attorney's office said.
Police said that when they ran Rodriguez's DNA through the FBI's Combined DNA Index System, they got a"hit" on a cold case from August 2015. Prosecutors said that assault involved another female victim who was raped under similar circumstances.
