Anaheim Police Officer Accused of Sexual Assault

A woman, identified as Jane Doe, has accused Anaheim Police Officer Carlos Romero of rape in her home, alleging that he accessed her contact information after running her license plate at a drive-thru. Romero is said to have engaged in non-consensual sexual acts with the woman, despite her initial consent to kissing. The woman filed a civil rights lawsuit against Romero, claiming battery and sexual assault, while the Orange County District Attorney's Office declined to press criminal charges. The lawsuit also implicates the city of Anaheim in the case, with Romero currently on administrative leave pending investigations.
