Two women allege Kansas City police officer raped them

Two women told Kansas City police that a veteran officer raped them in recent months.

Jeffrey Holmes, 47, of Kansas City served with the Kansas City Police Department for 13 years and was assigned to the south patrol unit. He is now behind bars facing two felony counts involving public corruption.

In addition to the women's statements, police said witnesses corroborated their stories. Evidence seized off Holmes' cell phone and computers at his home backed up their claims, according to court documents.

She said she was sharing a room with another woman, who was ordered to leave by Holmes. The woman, known as JL, believed she had warrants out for her arrest and marijuana in the room. Holmes threatened to have her arrested if she did not have sex with him, according to court documents.

Fearing that she would go to jail, the woman gave Holmes a condom and had sex with him. He then tossed the condom onto the top of the toilet seat. After Holmes left, the woman took a picture of the condom and entitled it "Cop DNA." She emailed the photo and text to her friend who had left the room, according to court documents. The woman's friend was mad that JL hadn't paid her share of the rent and found Holmes and told him about the photo.
