CSPD Officer Shane Reed pleaded guilty in 2022 to a charge of misdemeanor child abuse after assaulting and threatening a teenage boy who was the victim in a sexual assault case involving Reed’s girlfriend. In March 2022, while off duty, Reed confronted the 15-year-old boy – who had been sexually involved with Reed’s then-girlfriend – and shoved him against a fence, telling the teen he would kill him and nobody would find his body. Reed initially faced more serious charges, including kidnapping, but took a plea deal; he was sentenced to two years of probation and required to attend anger-management classes, avoiding jail time for the incident.
