Former DC cop honored over Jan. 6 allegedly drugged and raped 6 women he met on dating apps
The man faces 32 charges related to the allegations and may face more charges.
A former Washington, D.C., police officer has been charged with the rape of half a dozen women he met from online dating apps.
Alexandria Commonwealth's Attorney Bryan Porter said digital evidence obtained from devices owned by 30-year-old Timothy Valentin showed that he allegedly sexually assaulted women from Maryland and Virginia.
Investigators are asking for help from the public in finding other potential victims.
Valentin was also on the list of "extraordinary" officers honored for "heroism" during the melee at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.
"Through the course of this investigation, detectives learned that Valentin met women through online dating platforms, taking them on a date where it was believed he could have added substance to their beverages that they were drinking, later sexually assaulting them," said Alexandria Police Chief Tarrick McGuire.
