Officers allegedly gave a teen info about police operations in return for sexual favor..

OAKLAND, Calif. — Seven Bay Area law enforcement officers were charged on Friday for their alleged roles in a scandal involving a teen who says cops gave her confidential information in return for sexual favors.

Five Oakland city officers, one Livermore officer and one Contra Costa sheriff’s officer have been charged, Alameda County District Attorney Nancy O’Malley announced at a press conference.

The criminal charges are the latest move to hold officers responsible for improper sexual contact with the teen, who is known by her pseudonym Celeste Guap, or for failing to report their colleagues’ encounters with her.

Guap, now 19, said she had sex with about 30 officers from various Bay Area law enforcement departments. She claims she was underage during some of those encounters and that officers knew it. In exchange, some officers allegedly paid her and shared details about upcoming prostitution raids.

Far less would be used to justify much worse if the accused were not corrupt cops.
