Butler allegedly left the victim in an abandoned lot.

Butler resigned from the Lakewood Police Department after his arrest. That's when detectives put out word that they were seeking information about any additional incidents that may have occurred.

He was later accused of sexually assaulting a second woman while on duty in June 2018. Investigators say he was also giving her a ride in his patrol car.
