Former Kansas detective, Roger Golubski, who was accused of sexually assaulting Black women, has passed away. Prosecutors announced his death just as his trial was about to begin. Golubski had been facing charges of allegedly assaulting multiple Black women during his time as a detective in the Topeka Police Department.
The accusations against Golubski surfaced after several women came forward with allegations of sexual assault dating back to the 1980s and 1990s. The victims claimed that Golubski used his position of power to coerce them into sexual acts. The case against him had been in the works for several years, with investigations leading up to his scheduled trial.
The sudden death of Golubski has raised questions about the future of the case and whether the victims will still receive justice. Prosecutors have not provided any information regarding the circumstances of Golubski’s death or if it was related to the upcoming trial. The news of his passing has left both the victims and the community reeling, as they had been looking to hold Golubski accountable for his alleged actions.
The Associated Press has reported on the developing story but has not released any additional details at this time. The fate of the case and the impact of Golubski’s death on the victims will continue to be a point of interest as the community awaits further updates.
