Written by In 2013, Sergeant Rick Benson was accused of sexually assaulting a female subordinate, Camille Kramer, on multiple occasions. Benson allegedly threatened Kramer to keep silent, stating that reporting the incidents would be a ‘career ender.’ He also assigned her undesirable shifts and denied leave requests as forms of retaliation. The case highlighted a workplace culture that discouraged reporting of sexual harassment. Benson was eventually investigated, but the internal inquiry focused more on Kramer’s personal life than on Benson’s alleged misconduct. The outcome of the investigation and any disciplinary actions against Benson are not specified in the available sources.
