After “Predator” Cop Gets Wrist-Slap for Raping Kids on Duty, He’s Let Out and Strikes Again

By Matt Agorist

Norristown, PA — For years, the Free Thought Project has been reporting on case after case of police officers caught raping, molesting, and abusing their victims—many of whom are children. All too often, these officers are let off with little to no punishment. Many of these officers were caught sexually abusing children only to be let loose in society after flexing their blue privilege. In the instance below, that is exactly what happened and this predator ex-cop was allowed to strike again after serving a measly sentence.

Former Pennsylvania State Police officer Michael Evans betrayed his badge in a most dishonorable and horrific way. He was caught and convicted of forcing women and underage girls to perform sex acts in exchange for their freedom.

One of his victims was an underage girl who called police to report that her home had been burglarized. As she waited for her parents to come back home, this predator raped her. Another one of his victims was a woman seeking police protection from her abusive boyfriend. Instead of help, however, then-officer Evans raped her.

Because police officers all too often receive slaps on the wrist for betraying their oaths in the most heinous manner, Evans was only sentenced to ten years in jail for these acts. He would get out after only serving 8.

As TFTP frequently reports, sex offenders, especially those who prey on children, will often times strike again, even after doing years in jail. That’s exactly what happened with Evans. As KYW reports, in the summer of 2018, during which Evans was nearing the end of his 10-year probation sentence, he fondled a 15 year old while engaged in a sex act with a 40-year-old woman in the garage of his Berks County home.

After he was caught preying on children once again, Evans, now 52, pleaded guilty to corruption of minors, indecent exposure and indecent assault.

“He was a predator,” prosecutor Roderick Fancher said. “He was using a badge as a disguise to prey on women. Twenty years ago, he got a significant state sentence and is out there doing it again now that he’s out of prison. He’s engaging in the exact same behavior, the exact same thing.”

After violating his parole and preying on another child, Evans once more,received an insultingly low sentence. He received just 2 ½ to five years in state prison for the parole violation.

According to KYW, during his appearance in Montgomery County court, Evans said his plea deal in Berks County is for five to 10 years in prison. Fancher hopes the judge tacks that onto the parole violation sentence instead of running them concurrent “so he serve as much time as possible.”

This case is a perfect example of how backwards this justice system is in the land of the free. We see people getting put away for life because they get caught with a plant. All the while, we see cops preying on children and getting off with little to no jail.

Below are a few of these horrific cases we’ve reported over the years in which cops were convicted of sexual abuse and let off with a slap on the wrist.

In 2015, a former Manatee County Sheriff’s Lieutenant was sentenced for his sadistic and sickening acts against three children. Officer Dale Couch was arrested after children told authorities what he had done to them — violently sexually abused them.

He was charged with two counts of lewd and lascivious molestation of a child under age 12, and a third charge of lewd and lascivious molestation against a 12-year-old child. Instead of being locked in a cage for the rest of his life, Couch flexed his blue privilege and was given 12 months probation — no jail time.

Just before Couch’s trial, we reported on the police officer who was caught with multiple hard drives full of child pornAll the charges were dropped.

The Free Thought Project also reported on the case of officer Christopher Allen Carson who orally forced himself onto a sleeping 7th grader and was only given a 30-day sentence.

And the list goes on.

Former state trooper, 36-year-old Samuel H. McHenry II, responded to a traffic accident in December 2016, and, instead of helping the victim, he threatened to take her to jail because he saw an empty pill bottle and a nasal spray bottle in her vehicle, neither of which are illegal. He then restrained the woman and threw her in the back of the cop car, drove her to a secluded area and raped her. He then left her at a closed store, away from her car, and sped off.

McHenry pleaded guilty to the charges and was given a measly 180-day sentence, 180 days of which he would never have to spend in jail, thanks to his blue-privileged status.

In November of 2013, John Van Trump was accused of sexually assaulting a girl younger than six-years-old. Since the girl was younger than six, his charge was considered a super crime.

The details of Trump’s crimes were so heinous that they were not released publicly. We only know that Trump sexually assaulted the daughter of his former girlfriend on multiple occasions. At the time of the alleged crimes, she was 5.

On June 17, 2015, John Van Trump was convicted of sexually assaulting that little girl. However, instead of the minimum 25-year sentence he originally faced, Trump received far less time. In fact, he received no time, thanks to his police officer status.

A former Florida police officer of the year admitted to forcing undocumented immigrants into having sex with him.

Jonathan Bleiweiss, 34, pleaded guilty to an array of charges last year, admitting to 14 counts of armed false imprisonment, 15 counts of battery and four counts of stalking. However, he conveniently avoided all of the charges with “sex” in them.

Due to his police officer status, this former Broward Sheriff’s deputy was given an insultingly lenient plea deal. As part of that deal, Bleiweiss did not face charges of sexual battery, and as such was not required by the state of Florida to register as a sex offender.

Broward Public Defender Howard Finkelstein called the outcome, “shocking and shameful to the whole county.”

This article could go on to be hundreds of pages long. In fact, 1,000 policemen across the US had their licenses revoked and lost their jobs over a six-year period due to sexual crimes while on duty, and this number is likely only a fraction of the actual cases that have occurred. After all, as this case and all the others show, cops don’t really have the incentive to stay out of jail for preying on others, which makes the entire system complicit in perpetuating it and potentially covering it up.
