Daniel Holtzclaw, the Oklahoma City police officer arrested in August and charged with sexually abusing eight black women, has supporters online who have raised more than $7,000 according to MLive.com.

According to Raw Story, the 27-year-old cop is facing charges of “rape, forcible oral sodomy, sexual batter and indecent exposure” for allegedly assaulting women he encountered while on patrol. Prosecutors say Holtzclaw frequently stopped black woman between the ages of 34 and 58 “and threatened to arrest them or physically harm them unless they exposed themselves, allowed him to fondle them or had sex with him.”

Holtzclaw, who has been an officer with the Oklahoma City Police Department for three years, is being held on $5 million bond, and friends and family have created a Facebook page called “Justice for Daniel Holtzclaw,” Raw Story reports.
