Oklahoma: 3rd Cop Accused of Sexually Assaulting Women While on Duty 
---------------------------------------------------------------------


 
In Oklahoma, a third law enforcement officer has been accused of
sexually assaulting women while on duty. Tulsa County Deputy Gerald
Nuckolls has resigned following his arrest on Tuesday for allegedly
assaulting two women while responding to a 911 hangup call. It is
believed he may have assaulted at least five other victims. His arrest
came a day after Oklahoma State Trooper Eric Roberts was arrested for
allegedly sexually assaulting three women while on duty. Last month
Oklahoma City police officer Daniel Holtzclaw was accused of sexually
assaulting eight women, all of them African-American.
