A New Jersey police officer currently under investigation for fatally shooting a man who had his hands raised also blackmailed a woman into having rough, unprotected sex with him, the woman claims in a new civil suit.

Shakera Brown says she was standing outside a Rite Aid last January when Officer Braheme Days approached her claiming she fit the description of an alleged shoplifter. Then, via the Daily Journal:

The suit claims that Days told her she would be arrested unless they could "work something out."

Brown states she pleaded that she had children and could not spend time in jail. Days allegedly said, "Then, I guess we're going to handle this in an adult manner."

The suit states that Days had Brown put her cellphone number into his phone and told her he would call her. She went home where about 8 p.m. Days reportedly called her to arrange a meeting.

According to the Journal, Days pulled up near her home in his police cruiser and asked her to give him a blow job. They later had sex at his home and at a nearby hotel, and the suit alleges Days continued to threaten her.

Things got worse that summer, when Brown allegedly filed a complaint with the Bridgeton Police Department.

"However, following Ms. Brown's complaint to Lieutenant Slabado, Officer Days' behavior got progressively worse," the suit states.

Brown claims one encounter was at a house in Bridgton Village. She allegedly told Days she would no longer have sex with him but gave in when he told her that she had a "no bail" warrant issued for her arrest.

At that time, she claims, he also insisted on having unprotected sexual intercourse against her will. Afterward, she made an emergency appointment with her doctor for a screening for sexually transmitted diseases and continues to be checked for them. Her doctor declared her healthy, though.

Days is also currently under investigation for the December shooting of Jerame C. Reid, who appeared to have his hands in the air.

Days and his partner, Roger Worley, had just discovered a gun in the car's glove compartment when Reid exited the vehicle with his hands raised at shoulder level. Days shot him multiple times, killing him at the scene.

Both officers are currently on suspension pending the investigation.
