A now-former Los Angeles police officer convicted of raping a woman while he was off-duty was sentenced today to six years in state prison.

Superior Court Judge Shelly Torrealba said William Alexander Rodriguez, 37, committed a “forcible, violent act” and was a sworn police officer — albeit off-duty at the time — and left the victim “crying and bleeding” without any transportation near an area known for prostitution.

    “It is extremely unfortunate that based upon this incident his life will never be the same,” Rodriguez’s attorney said outside court after the sentencing.

    Oh, fuck all the way off with that.
