Judge accused of rape, human trafficking is indicted on more Kentucky charges
Criminal charges continue to pile up for a former judge accused of rape and human trafficking in Northern Kentucky.
Former Campbell County District Judge Timothy Nolan, 70, was indicted by a Campbell County grand jury Thursday on eight additional felony charges. Those included two counts of human trafficking; one count of attempted human trafficking with a minor; one count of third-degree sodomy; one count of rape of a female over 12; two counts of unlawful transaction with a minor under 16 – controlled substance; and one count of unlawful transaction with a minor under 18 – controlled substance.
Nolan, of California, Ky., is accused of crimes involving 22 victims, including eight juveniles, the Kentucky attorney general’s office said in a news release Thursday. The crimes allegedly occurred between 2010 and May of this year.
Prosecutors have accused Nolan, who served as a judge in the 1970s and 1980s, of using drugs, money and threats to coerce women and juveniles to have sex with him.
