Tampa Escorts: rape suspect disputes police account
August 31, 2010Police said the woman’s medical condition has not caused bruising in the past. They declined to name the condition.
Harris has his own theory for why charges would be filed against him in Tampa: He says Volusia County officials have a vendetta against him. He previously faced multiple charges there, including grand theft, for which he spent three years in prison.
He speculates that Volusia officials are bitter that he was acquitted of the 1999 rape charge.
Harris said his troubles started back in police academy days.
Lake County records show he withdrew from the Lake Tech Institute of Public Safety in 1998 for “other reasons.”
But Harris said he wasn’t allowed to graduate because he was a “whistle-blower.” He claims to have exposed that law enforcement officials had sex with prostitutes before arresting them.
