Cop accepts guilty plea
BY SHARON COOLIDGE

A Cincinnati police officer accused of raping a woman who had summoned help pleaded guilty today to two charges of sexually battery, ending his trial after nearly two weeks.
Sgt. William Simpson, 47, was accused of raping the woman after he was sent to her home after her boyfriend beat her.

Under the terms of the deal, Simpson will serve six months in jail, spend five years on community supervision and get treatment as a sex offender. In addition, he resigned from the department this morning and agreed not to seek reinstatement.

Prosecutors originally charged Simpson with three counts of rape and three of sexual battery.They said today they agreed to the deal to spare the victim for having to testify again.Simpson’s lawyer, Merlyn Shiverdecker, kept the woman on the stand for three days last week and asked her repeatedly about the incident and sexual positions.The woman agreed with the plea deal.
