The Connecticut Victim Advocate accuses a Holyoke, Massachusetts Police officer of sending her threatening text messages.
Paul Barkyoumb has now been charged with 2 counts of second degree harassment.
Connecticut State Police Trooper Karen O'Connor says the Holyoke man turned himself in to Connecticut State Police today.
"After a lengthy investigation into the allegations, detectives from the State Police Major Crime Squad secured an arrest warrant for Mr. Barkyoumb," O'Connor said.
Barkyoumb's attorney says he is adamant that his client is innocent.
Connecticut Victim Advocate Michele Cruz identified herself as the victim of harassment in a recent article in the Hartford Advocate newspaper.
She said she had been dating Barkyoumb, and he started sending threatening text messages after they broke up.
Barkyoumb is scheduled to appear in court February 16.

I think the entire affair is trumped up and exaggerated beyond belief. People need to grow a thicker skin.
