Officer Robert Semyon Accused of Sexually Assaulting Unconscious Woman

A Luzerne County police officer accused of sexually assaulting an unconscious woman has been ordered to trial.

Robert Semyon gave up his right to a preliminary hearing Thursday to see if there is enough evidence against him.

Robert Semyon, 46, is suspended from the Pittston Police Department.

Representatives from the attorney general's office said Semyon sexually assaulted an unconscious woman in September and took sexually explicit pictures of her.

The photos were found on a laptop belonging to the police department.

Semyon was suspended in October. He is charged with indecent assault and other crimes.

If he is found guilty, Semyon could be sentenced to spend up to 37 years in prison and pay up to $90,000 in fines.

No date has been set for his trial.
