“Two former police officers in Etowah County were arrested Monday night on sex crime charges.

Jonathan Perry Works, 41, of Gadsden, and Brian Edward Walker, 44, of Rainbow City were booked into the Etowah County Jail in the early evening, records show. Both worked at Southside Police Department and their arrests followed indictments that were issued earlier in the day.

Works is charged with two counts of first-degree rape and two counts of first-degree sodomy, state court records show.

The rape indictments against Works state he engaged in sexual intercourse with a member of the opposite sex who was incapable of consent by reason of being physically helpless or mentally incapacitated. On the sodomy charges, Works is accused of engaging in deviate sexual intercourse with a member of the opposite sex who was incapable of consent by reason of being physically helpless or mentally incapacitated.

The victim’s name was redacted and it wasn’t clear if all four counts involved the same victim or different victims. Works’ bond is set at $100,000.

Walker is charged with two counts of rape. According to the indictment, Walker did engage in sexual intercourse with a member of the opposite sex who was incapable of consent by reason of being physically helpless or mentally incapacitated or,  having a legal duty to prevent the commission of the offense, did fail to make an effort he is legally required to make.”

Real heroes aren’t they? These could be the guys pulling you over on a dark highway. What do you think made them want to be cops? They “Wanted to help people” ?  Is it that or did they have the desire to control people?   What normal person wants to put others under their control?  What normal person wants to wear a gun and force others to do their will?    Not very many. These “Heroes” have more in common with rapists, bullies and wife beaters than with the “Normal” person.   Just because someone puts on a uniform doesn’t make them a hero. It makes them a person who chose this job for a specific reason.
