SAN DIEGO — It was just after 1:30 a.m. when former San Diego police Officer Anthony Hair told a dispatcher he’d arrived at Las Colinas Detention Facility in Santee to drop of…
The investigators also asked Hair for permission to check his uniforms for semen.
“I don’t know my rights. Do I have to?” the former officer asked. “I don’t think I want to do that.”
Hey, interesting factoid, you know who can't consent to sex? Prisoners. But 34 states allow police officers to have "consensual" sex with detainees. How/why a person in police custody would have consensual sex with their arresting officer is unfathomable.
California is not one of those 34 states. What Officer Hair did was rape.
While under arrest. Even if she didn't explicitly suggest quid pro quo, it's still an unbalanced power dichotomy where true consent is impossible.
That's like saying a 12 year old in foster care consented to have sex with their foster parents. All statements made by the rape victim were made under duress and do not mitigate the crime.
