Two border agents who stopped a Chevrolet Suburban they thought looked suspiciously heavy were well intentioned but overly zealous, a federal judge has ruled.

U.S. District Judge Marina Garcia Marmolejo in Corpus Christi on Thursday granted a defendant’s motion to suppress evidence, stating that the agents in question lacked “reasonable suspicion to believe that criminal activity was afoot.”

Lawsuit claim: San Jose cop accused of rape sexually assaulted another woman just months earlier

SAN JOSE — The woman who prosecutors contend was raped by an on-duty San Jose police officer has made an explosive new accusation in a lawsuit, alleging that the cop had sexually assaulted “at least one other woman” just months earlier.

The lawsuit further alleges that the department knew or should have known about his conduct but failed to make sure he was accompanied by a second officer “at all times.”

Officer Geoffrey Graves’ lawyer did not respond to a request for comment. The woman’s attorney also did not respond to requests for more information to support the new accusations, which are described only briefly in the lawsuit.

Earlier this year, Santa Clara County prosecutors charged Graves with purchase Clomiphene pct raping an undocumented woman in September 2013, whom he first encountered during a disturbance call. The criminal complaint also charges Graves with two counts of felony domestic violence for allegedly injuring his then-girlfriend in incidents unrelated to the alleged rape.
