Ex-Rockaway Cop Admits Having On-Duty Sex With Teens: Report
The now-former Rockaway Township police officer pled guilty to official misconduct stemming from on-duty sex with two teenagers.

ROCKAWAY, NJ — A now-former Rockaway Township police officer pleaded guilty to two counts of official misconduct and agreed to forfeit his law enforcement job after he admitted to having sex with two teenage girls while on duty, nj.com reported.
Wilfredo Guzman, 45, was first charged in April 2017 after sexually assaulting teenagers in 2014 and 2015. He faced a number of charges, including sexual assault, endangering the welfare of a child, possession of child pornography, and eight counts of official misconduct. The majority of those charges were dropped in exchange for his guilty plea of two counts of official misconduct, according to reports.
In addition to leaving the Rockaway Township Police Department, Guzman has also agreed to never seek public employment again (he was suspended without pay during the trial). The Morris County Prosecutor's Office will recommend he be sentenced to seven years in prison as part of the plea deal, the Daily Record reported.
