A disgraced former Kansas police detective, about to stand trial on charges that he kidnapped and raped two women decades ago, was found dead in his home Monday morning, December 2nd.. Authorities discovered the body of Roger Golubski, after he failed to show up for jury selection in his long-awaited trial in Topeka, according to two sources with knowledge of the situation. They said he died by suicide.
The retired detective was accused of using his position as a police officer in Kansas City, Kansas, to sexually assault vulnerable black women over the course of decades. Prosecutors said in court filings that Golubski hand-picked his victims because he was confident they would never be believed. Golubski denied the allegations and his lawyers suggested in court filings that his accusers were fabricating their claims. A second case accused him of being in cahoots with a drug kingpin in the sex trafficking of underage girls.
