Former Trooper facing rape charges due in Logan Co. Court today

District Attorney Tom Lee announced Tuesday that he is charging former Oklahoma Highway Patrol Trooper Patrick R. Venable with rape in the second degree.

Venable resigned from OHP back in July following an internal investigation into allegations that he had taken an intoxicated underage female into custody for DUI and then drove her from Oklahoma City to a residence in Guthrie to have sex.

Venable, who is due in a Logan County Courthouse at 1:30pm today, if found guilty could face up to fifteen years in prison.
