A former Oklahoma City cop thought
his badge and his race would protect him as he sexually assaulted woman
after woman. An all-white, mostly male jury proved him wrong.
“Is
this the first time you sucked a white cock?” Oklahoma City police
officer Daniel Holtzclaw asked as he bent over his victim. “You’re gonna
have to give me head or ass or go to jail.”
Holtzclaw was found guilty Thursday night on 18 of 36 counts, including first-degree sexual assault. He now faces up to 263 years in prison.
What’s more remarkable than a police officer being convicted of
crimes on duty is that Holtzclaw is “white” and all but one of his 13
known victims were black, including a 17-year-old runaway and a
fiftysomething grandmother.
Technically, Holtzclaw is biracial: born to a white veteran police
officer and a Japanese mother—but, make no mistake, Holtzclaw claimed to
be white.
Don’t take my word for it. Holtzclaw is the most reliable witness to his own life.
