Ex-Kansas City Police Captain Roger Golubski, 71, Found Dead on Back Porch After Failing to Appear for Federal Trial
Dec 2, 2024, 06:00 PM
Roger Golubski, a 71-year-old former Kansas City, Kansas police detective and police captain accused of sexually assaulting Black women and girls as young as 13 for decades, failed to appear in court for the start of his federal trial on Monday, December 2, 2024. An arrest warrant was issued when he did not attend the trial, where he faced six felony counts of violating women's civil rights. Prosecutors later confirmed in court that Golubski had died by suicide, found dead on his back porch on the same day his trial was set to begin. He had been accused of preying on vulnerable women in poor neighborhoods, offering them drugs, demanding sexual favors, and threatening to harm or jail their relatives if they resisted, terrorizing those who tried to fight back.
