A woman who was raped by a former police officer says that her infant daughter was in the same bed as her when the officer raped her.

The defense attorney for 24-year-old rookie cop Ryan James Bruggink did not refute the story of the once Grand Rapids Police officer who is accused of rape.

The specific allegations against Bruggink are that she was assaulted by the former cop while her infant daughter was asleep in the bed with her. She took the stand and testified against Bruggink on Wednesday in in Wyoming, Michigan District Court.

She explained that she met the rookie cop through an online dating site back in January of last year. They began dating but that didn’t last after she found out that he had been cheating on her.

“I told him to exit the relationship more gracefully,” she explained.

They remained friends after that, but she didn’t think they could remain serious in any way. But on the evening of November 24th, he called and texted her, saying he wanted to “come over.”

“I kept telling him ‘No, don’t come over,” she said, answering questions from Assistant Kent County Prosecutor Robin Esslinger.

 

When he showed up at her door at 3:30 a.m., she said very clearly that she did not want him to come in, let alone have sex with her. But he broke the door down after rattling it nonstop.

Why didn’t she call the police? “I was scared to call the police. He was police” she said.

She told him to stop, but he flashed his Grand Rapids Police badge, which he said gave him the “right” to do what he wanted.

He then called her a “ghetto piece of sh*t” while he assaulted her in the bed with her infant daughter.

“I couldn’t breathe. I couldn’t even talk,” she added.

He later called her and apologized. She did eventually call the Michigan State Police, and he was arrested.

MLive reports that “after the testimony Wednesday, Esslinger asked Judge Steven Timmers to send the case to Kent County Circuit Court for felony proceedings and added two more counts of first-degree criminal sexual conduct to Bruggink’s case.”

If convicted he is convicted, he’ll face a maximum sentence of life in prison on three counts of CSC-1 and a count of home invasion. Right now Bruggink’s is out on only $5,000 bail.
