A veteran New Orleans police officer has surrendered to police following an indictment for aggravated rape.
He is in custody in Orleans Parish prison and is being held without bond.
According to the Orleans Parish District Attorney's Office, the
warrant was issued for 12-year-veteran officer Michael Thomassie after
he was indicted by a grand jury Thursday on a single count of aggravated
rape.
The allegation dates back to 2004 and 2005 when the alleged victim in
the case was between 7 and 9 years of age, according to a spokesman for
the office.
Thomassie is a 12-year veteran of the department. He was most recently assigned to desk duty in the 4th District.
