A pair of Lauderhill, FL., cops have been arrested for being involved in a very strange incident that had one cop telling an alleged drunk driver to hit another officer in the groin; the same officer is then accused of having carnal knowledge of the passenger of the same vehicle.
According to the Sun-Sentinel, prosecutors say that Franklin Hartley, 32, stopped the women in their car after they left the Vegas Cabaret strip club and, threatening to arrest the driver, ordered them to follow him to the parking lot of a nearby mall. That's where Thomas Merenda, 35, met up with them.
According to arrest reports, Hartley ordered the passenger to perform oral sex on him, then had intercourse with her. Merenda's request, according to the reports, was less time-consuming: "Officer Merenda asked the victim [name withheld] to punch him in the 'nuts,' meaning genital area."
Merenda, "who at the time of the incident was an on-duty public servant, did intentionally, unlawfully and corruptly request and accept the benefit of having the victim … strike him in the groin by threatening arrest, citation or seizure," according to Merenda's arrest report.
Hartley faces two unlawful compensation charges — one for having sex with the passenger, and the other for encouraging the driver to punch Merenda. "Tom really enjoys this," he reportedly told the driver.
Hartley asked for and received the passenger's phone number, and he sent her a photograph via text message some time after the parking lot encounter, according to Hartley's arrest report.
Bradford Cohen, a lawyer representing the reported victims, said they were distraught about the whole experience and are hoping the trial reveals just how egregious the officers' conduct was.
"The allegations are extremely serious in regard to both officers," Cohen said. "They look forward to bringing these two individuals to justice."
He said the women have not made a decision on whether to file a civil suit.
