LANHAM, Md. (CBSDC) — A 19-year veteran of the Baltimore Police Department has been arrested and will be charged with third- and fourth-degree sexual offenses and sexual solicitation of a minor.

Howard County Police detectives believe 44-year-old Charles William Hagee, of the 8800 block of Goose Landing Circle in Columbia, contacted a 14-year-old girl through a phone number posted to an online prostitution advertisement.

The two allegedly exchanged text messages before meeting at his home and engaging in sexual activity on three separate occasions between January 2013 and May 2013.

Hagee, who is assigned to the Special Enforcement Section of the Baltimore Police Department, has been suspended without pay.

The investigation is ongoing. Police encourage anyone who may have been a victim or has additional information about Hagee to contact police at 410-313-2630.

I-80 drug stops: Sheriff fleeces motorists out of big bucks claims lawsuit

March 13, 2014

The I-80 drug stops orchestrated by a sheriff in rural Nevada appear to be quite the racket if what the sheriff and his officers are being accused of is factual. Humbolt County Sheriff Ed Kilgore’s department is accused of running an I-80 drug stop sting and taking tens of thousands of dollars from motorists and this is all legally done, according to The Inquisitr on March 12.

The I-80 drug stop racket came to light when two men, one from Colorado and another from California filed federal lawsuits claiming deputies seized thousands of dollars in each separate case from motorists for no reason at all. There were no drugs involved and these men were not arrested, the deputies took their cash and sent them on their way.

One man said he was carrying a briefcase containing $50,000 in cash and the other man reported he was out $13,800 in cash and a handgun. Both these incidents started with a traffic stop and the sheriff claims this is perfectly legal if the officer involved suspects the money was from illegal sources or to be used illegally in some way. There is no proof needed and they do not need to be accused of wrong doing when the money is taken away.

These two traffic stops resulted in the officers finding no evidence of drugs in the car and there was no arrest made. The officers impounded both of the men’s vehicles and the men were told if they forfeited the cash they had with them their cars would be released.

The sheriff argues that both men had the right to go to court to prove that the money was legal, but they opted not to. This is a case of guilty until proven innocent say critics and it sounds like the sheriff and his merry-men have figured out a way to use the law to fleece unsuspecting motorist.

If you were either one of these men would you go to court after witnessing what looks like a legal scam? The men were most likely just happy to get out of there at the time. With the way the sheriff’s department had misconstrued the law to their advantage, the men who lost their cash probably worried that the court proceeding would run pretty much the same in this out-of-the-way municipal.

If this is what is going on with the I-80 drug stops, people should fear traveling through this area. Apparently if an officer just “suspects” that you are doing something illegal, it could be very costly.

Reginald Wilson, a police officer who worked as a personal trainer, was arrested for breaking into a client’s car while at the gym and stealing money.

Reginald Wilson, a police officer who worked as a personal trainer, was arrested for breaking into a client’s pickup while he was busy working out at the gym.
What a dumbbell!

A Texas cop who works as a personal trainer was arrested after a client used a hidden camera to find the man allegedly breaking into his truck during workouts at the gym.

Footage from the hidden camera shows the bandit, identified by police as Reginald Wilson, breaking into Spivey’s truck and stealing money from the middle console.
Reginald Wilson — a police officer with the city of Whitehouse, about 100 miles southeast of Dallas — was busted after the victim, David Spivey, showed video of the burglary to local cops, KLTV reported.

“Who would have thought that somebody would go into my locker, get a key out and go in my truck?” Spivey told the news station. “Especially my trainer.”

David Spivey said he was wondering why items kept disappearing from inside his pickup, so he placed a camera in the backseat — and discovered his personal trainer was the culprit.
Spivey said he was suspicious that someone close to him was stealing items from his pickup, because the bandit never left any signs of forced entry.

He eventually set up a camera in the backseat of the cab while it was parked at the Woodcreek Athletic Club in Tyler to catch the crook red handed.

A friend parked next to Spivey’s truck also recorded Wilson breaking into the vehicle, which was parked at the gym.
“It took me a bunch of money to figure out it wasn’t a family member,” he told the news station. “A bunch of time, a bunch of patience and a bunch of good friends.”

Spivey also had a friend park next to the truck to keep watch.

David Spivey was working out at the Woodcreek Athletic Club in Tyler, Tex., when his personal trainer allegedly stole his truck keys from his locker and broke in.
As the camera inside Spivey’s truck recorded Wilson rummaging through the cab and pulling cash from the middle console, the friend recorded the break-in from outside.

Spivey brought the footage to cops, who arrested Wilson a short time later.

Wilson was jailed on two counts of burglary of a vehicle. He was suspended without pay from the Whitehouse Police Department.

Spivey said he was just happy to put the ordeal behind him.

“It is what it is,” Spivey said. “I can’t do anything about it. I’m just glad that it’s not happening anymore.”
