Cop quits after alleged strip-
A Scottsdale officer is off the job after accusations he inappropriately strip-searched a young woman.
According to the alleged victim's mom, the 19-year-old woman called police Sunday morning about intruders in her apartment complex. The mom claims one of the officers, who came to investigate, ordered the teen to get naked. Afraid and confused, she complied with the strip-search.
The day after the incident, the teen's mom sent emails to the police department, government officials and the media. "This was pure police misconduct, human rights violation, and sexual harassment," she wrote. After the police department opened an internal investigation, the accused officer, Chong Kim, resigned.
Sources say police are looking into whether Officer Kim has done this before. 12 News has not been able to reach the officer for comment. br>
Scottsdale city officials declined comment about Officer Kim, citing the ongoing internal investigation. The Federal Bureau of Investigation says it has been contacted by Scottsdale police. The FBI may look into whether Officer Kim infringed on the teen's civil rights under color of law.
