Harmless mother Hospitalized After Being ‘Legally’ Raped with the aid of police officers searching out Non-Existent capsules


 Rape inside the U.S.A. Is described by way of the Department of Justice as “Penetration, irrespective of how moderate, of the vagina or anus with any body part or item, or oral penetration with the aid of an intercourse organ of some other character, without the consent of the sufferer.” on the quit of the following tale about what came about to Erica Reynolds, you will have 0 doubt that she become raped. But, due to the fact her rapists put on a badge and declare to protect society, no person may be going to prison and therapists claim the whole lot they did was criminal.

Erica’s nightmare started out the day after Christmas in 2018 while police suspected her of getting a substance deemed illegal through the state. Because the kingdom claims the immoral authority to kidnap, cage — and, in Erica’s case, rape — humans looking for these substances, this innocent mother was abducted and brought down to the Phoenix police department. As police looked for the arbitrary substance, Erica becomes stripped naked, pressured right into a concrete room — and raped.

She recalled, in scary element, to the Arizona Republic, approximately how the race unfolded. Erica changed into within the room with a male officer and a woman officer. Whilst she noticed the lady officer start to placed on rubber gloves, Erica went into panic mode and started out begging the officers no longer to do what they had been about to do. They did not concentrate, even if she demanded they forestall.“I said, ‘you may do that to me,’” she says. “He said, ‘we can. And we can.’” Without putting any lubrication at the glove, Erica was pressured to bend over as the girl cop rammed her dry palms into Erica’s anus. Having given delivery only a few months in advance, Erica changed into stricken by hemorrhoids which were prodded and torn during the search for non-existent capsules. Erica screamed out in anguish, however, the callous state-sanctioned rapists couldn’t have cared much less.

After anally raping the innocent mother, the lady cop — without converting gloves — proceeded to vaginally rape Erica. After locating not anything again, Erica became sent on her way. She went home vomiting and was in so much ache that she had to go to the health facility to be handled. Her injuries have been so terrible that the clinic team of workers referred to as police to record a sexual assault. Genuinely understanding that what she simply skilled turned into an act of rape, Erica filed a complaint. However no person could even listen to her, a lot much less be held responsible because, as cited above, it’s not referred to as rape when police officers are attempting to find substances deemed unlawful through the country — it’s known as policy, even if they violate it. As the Arizona Republic reviews, beneath the Phoenix Police department policy, frame hollow space searches require a warrant or the “consent of the suspect” to prevent unconstitutional searches. The policy also mandates that the handiest medical health practitioner can also carry out them, and any strip seek ought to take location in “non-public rooms with due regard for the subject’s dignity.”

None of this took place in Erica’s case. Erica says that the department turned around the wagons and protected it up. Even after the medical institution team of workers reported the sexual assault injuries, police still had the nerve to call what they did to Erica an “ordinary cavity seek.” Now, pinnacle brass inside the Phoenix police department is clearly chalking up Erica’s treatment as a lapse in policy that permits officials to “disguise” their use of “out of coverage” procedures that injure human beings.

Sgt. Mercedes Fortune, a Phoenix police spokeswoman, stated, “In Mrs. Reynolds’ case, are there moments while matters befell and it’s now not captured and it wasn’t recorded? There have been. If you are that kind of cop, that likely won’t be the primary time you do something incorrectly, so we are hoping the second one time we trap you.”Neither of the law enforcement officials concerned in Erica’s case turned into fired, even when they were determined to have violated department coverage, so the idea of catching them a 2nd time is absurd as they were allowed to knowingly escape with it the primary time. Closing year, the female cop obtained just one week of suspension as punishment, now not for raping the lady, however for violating policy while she did it.

In advance this yr, due to the fact the officials involved had been not held responsible in any significant manner, the taxpayers shelled out $1.6 million to Erica. Sadly, Erica’s case is one of the limitless different cases on which the PBWW website has reported through the years. Even innocent notable-grandmothers aren’t safe from the badge-sporting rapists in their immoral pursuit of illegal substances. And all of it is allowed to preserve and condoned via most of society due to the fact they were taught from formative years that the kingdom can do no harm, and locking people in cages and raping them over substances — maintains us safe. For you to get past this downright sickening behavior, we ought to ask ourselves what could society think about people — in the event that they didn’t put on a uniform and a badge — who did this to a woman. Could everybody in their right mind claim that not anything criminal passed off if the perpetrators weren’t police officers? It's far high time individuals and the rest of the world in widespread realize that just due to the fact something is “prison” does not make it moral. If we do now not recognize that legality does not identical morality, it is inevitable that we will absolutely implode as a species.


“when erroneous public opinion honors what is despicable and despises what's honorable, punishes virtue and rewards vice, encourages what is harmful and discourages what's useful, applauds falsehood and smothers reality below indifference or insult, a state turns it’s back on progress and maybe restored handiest by the horrible classes of disaster.”
