There is a special place in hell for this monster and a Oklahoma City jury has started that process after deciding after a lengthy trial that former cop Daniel Holtzclaw of savagely raping 13 black woman while on duty over a course of months. An all white jury spent 48 hours deciding that Holtzclaw was guilty of 18 of the 36 counts he was charged with and recommended that he receive a total of 263 years in prison. As the verdict was being read, the convicted rapist was seen weeping in court like a baby as well as his family members could be heard crying in the courtroom. His victims were outside the courtroom singing happy birthday to him as he turned 29 years old on Thursday as the jury deliberated.
His youngest victim, a 17-year-old black teenager stated on the witness stand:
They were on A.’s mom’s porch when Holtzclaw allegedly told her he had to search her. He allegedly groped her underneath her clothes and inserted his fingers into her genitalia.
I was in shock. I was thinking like ‘What’s going on? Why would he be doing this?’ He said, ‘You got warrants. I don’t want to have to take you to jail. I don’t want to make this any harder than it has to be.’ Something like that. I don’t remember exactly.
I was in trouble. Like this was bad.
‘This is what you’re going to have to do.’ That’s what he said.
She testified that Holtzclaw then exposed his penis through his fly and raped her.
I told him I didn’t even want to do it before he pulled my drawers down, but it was too late.
Afterward Holtzclaw allegedly told A., “I might be back to see you later.”
