A north suburban police officer is in Lake County Jail on Tuesday after he was charged with restraining a woman and forcing her to perform sexual acts against her will in January.
Delatwon A. Haynes, 32, of Waukegan, was order held on $2 million bond Monday, according to a release from the Lake County Sheriff’s office. Haynes, who resigned from the Waukegan Police Dept. on Jan. 11, was charged with four counts of aggravated criminal sexual assault, one count of aggravated kidnapping, two counts of aggravated sexual abuse and eight counts of official misconduct on Monday.
The charges were filed as a result of an investigation prompted by a complaint filed on Jan. 7 by a woman reporting that an officer restrained her against her will and forced her to perform sexual acts, the release said.
The woman said that in the early morning hours of Jan. 6, an officer confronted her as she was walking in the 900 block of North Lewis Avenue in Waukegan, according to the release. The officer and the woman had a short conversation and he told her to go home.
About 30 minutes later, the officer confronted the woman again and ordered her into the back of his squad car, the release said. She got in and the officer drove her to the rear of an abandoned vehicle in the 1700 block of North Lewis. He then told the woman she was "required" to perform sexual acts with him, after which he released her near her residence.
Waukegan police and the Lake County State’s Attorney’s office began investigating immediately after the complaint was filed, the release said. Haynes was stripped of his police powers and placed on leave.
Haynes resigned from the department about four days later when faced with an administrative investigation, the release said. He was a member of the department since 2001 and served in the patrol division.
In February, Haynes was named in a lawsuit filed by Denise Swinney, who claimed the officer falsely arrested and raped her about 1 a.m. Jan. 6, 2005.
The suit claims Haynes fondled her chest, forced her to engage in oral sex, then had sex with her for more than 30 minutes.
Swinney claimsed in the suit she was never charged with a crime and was released by Haynes after being raped.

I know his wife Tracy. They are both liers and swindlers. I was SO glad to hear this happened because God don't like ugly...
Good Riddens
Well this is his wife Tracy and I don't lie or have to swindler anyone. I have always been a straight forward person and with me you get what you see. I have never harmed or wished harm to anyone. So whoever you are, you obviously don't know me. I'm sure that you have heard of the saying, it's always darkest before the light. So in other words, just in case you are slow, my husband will beat this and things will be the same soon again. Thanks for your concern and God speed to you
