sex trafficking

Former police detective Roger Golubski is under house arrest facing charges filed in September of sex trafficking, sexual assault, rape, and kidnapping.

His arrest followed years of accusations. It is alleged that from 1975 to his retirement in 2010 while serving as a detective with the Kansas City Police Department he engaged in illegal activities. 

On Monday, prosecutors added additional claims of “conspiracy, kidnapping, attempted kidnapping, aggravated sexual abuse, and attempted aggravated sexual abuse” to the initial indictment.

Two girls who were teenagers at the time claim they were held captive at an apartment complex. They also allege they were both raped by traffickers and unknown men. And that Golubski raped one of the girls who was 16 years old.

In a Topeka, Kansas courthouse Golubski pleaded not guilty to the charges.

Sex Trafficking

According to the indictment the former detective is also accused of running protection for a sex trafficking ring from 1996 through 1998. The operation was run by drug kingpin Cecil A. Brooks, Lemark Roberson, and Richard Robinson, aka “Bone.”  

Brooks allegedly paid Golubski for “protection from law enforcement investigation and intervention into the criminal offenses, including sex trafficking, occurring at Delevan (Apartments).”

"The girls locked in the office unit, whom some of the defendants sometimes considered to 'belong' to one of the defendants at a time, would be forced to provide sexual services to that defendant primarily and sometimes to others," the indictment details.

The girls had no choice. They were ordered to perform sexual services for the adult men who visited the building.

According to the indictment, Brooks had an office at the Delevan "where he stored guns, drugs, and cash used in his criminal activities." 

Double Homicide

Brooks is also alleged to be implicated in the 1994 double homicide that sent Lamonte McIntyre to prison. McIntyre was exonerated. And claimed that Golubski and a county prosecutor had forced witnesses to lie to protect Brook's drug and sex trafficking operation.

The reopening of the murder investigation found that the murders were committed by a 15-year-old named Neil Edgar, Jr., aka "Monster." And that Brooks ordered the killing.

A new look at the 28-year-old crime showed links between Brooks and Golubski.

The former detective’s attorney Chris Joseph said to local news KCUR that, "Roger maintains his innocence and looks forward to clearing his name from these decades-old and uncorroborated allegations." 

All four men are charged in the indictment. If convicted, they face life imprisonment. Brooks is now in a federal prison in Fort Worth, Texas. The whereabouts of the other two men are unknown.
