WASHINGTON — A former D.C. police officer has been indicted on a third-degree sex offense charge after police say he had sex with a 14-year-old girl he met on a dating app.
Prince George’s County State’s Attorney Angela Alsobrooks announced the indictment Wednesday.
Nathan Clinkscale was arrested April 30 after the teen’s mother called Prince George’s County police to her home on Teakwood Drive. The girl’s mother said she found Clinkscale, 25, in her daughter’s bedroom at around 1:30 a.m.
Police said the girl told investigators she met Clinkscale on the dating app the day before and invited him into her house through a basement window.
Clinkscale told investigators he believed the girl was 18.
Clinkscale, who had worked for the D.C. police department since 2016, was placed on administrative leave immediately after the incident and subsequently terminated.
