Trial Date Set for Cop Accused of Soliciting Sex

NASSAU, BAHAMAS – A police constable accused of using his badge to solicit sex will be tried next year.

Constable 4206 Shaquille Williamson is expected to be tried before Justice Renae McKay on August 12, 2024.

Prosecutors allege that Williamson was on patrol alone on July 5 when he came across a couple parked on Yamacraw Beach.

He allegedly performed a name check that revealed that the 32-year-old woman had two outstanding warrants.

Officer Williamson allegedly told the woman that she had to have sex with him to avoid being arrested.

Williamson is on bail.

He’s been suspended from his duties and placed on half-pay pending the outcome of his trial.
