Police officers in Kansas City, Kansas, operated a “protection racket,” which shielded gangs and traffickers in exchange for money and access to women and girls — and the Unified Government knew, a federal lawsuit alleges.
One of those officers was Roger Golubski, who has been federally indicted in two separate cases for assaulting two victims in the 1990s and conspiring to sex traffic underage girls between 1996 and 1998 with three other men. He is scheduled to go to trial in the assault case in December.

The protection racket, the lawsuit said, “operated a network of women that the Unified Government and its employees crudely or jokingly (depending on one’s viewpoint) referred to as ‘Golubski’s Girls.’ Golubski insisted upon a proprietary interest in these women, which was respected by the Unified Government.”
Golubski, the lawsuit said, managed the protection racket’s operation, which covered up gang killings, fabricated evidence and raped women.

UG = unified government; the city and county governments are unified.
