Miami Police Officer arrested on rape charges

[RagingInMiami]

Miami police Officer Michael P. Ragusa kidnapped a woman in his patrol car, tried raping her, released her, sent her a cellphone text message, then called to invite her to lunch, authorities say.

Ragusa, a three-year officer with an undistinguished career, was arrested Tuesday.

Stripped of his badge and gun, he was charged with kidnapping and attempted sexual battery by a law enforcement officer.

''It's difficult for us anytime one of our own gets in trouble for anything,'' said Miami Lt. Bill Schwartz. ``But something like this boggles the mind.''
