[DCCRIMESTORIES] D.C. police are investigating whether one of their own officers was running a prostitution ring after Sherlocks found a runaway girl and other young women at his home in Southeast Washington.According to documents filed in federal court, a 16-year-old girl who had gone missing told police that the officer bought sexy clothes for her and set up a "date" for her with an older white male for $80. The girl, who had been missing for a week, told police that six other women had also worked out of the home in the 3066 Stanton Road SE.
The incident comes just four days after the arrest of another D.C. police officer who was accused of taking nude pictures of a runaway teenager after she returned home. Police are investigating whether the two cases are related.
