MILPITAS, CA — Milpitas Police have arrested a Tracy resident, 54-year-old Stanley Troy Friesen, on charges of rape, sodomy, oral copulation, and impersonating a police officer. His victim is a Los Angeles woman.

According to police, on Jan. 16, Friesen met a woman at a motel in Milpitas after they connected through an internet dating site. He met the victim in her motel room and displayed a badge and firearm, identifying himself as a police officer.

Milpitas Police Lt. Raj Maharaj reports, "He told the victim he wanted to have sex with her and would not tell anyone about the contact if she complied. The victim, fearing for her safety and believing Friesen was a police officer, agreed to have sex with him."
