OAKLAND — A teen who says she’s had sexual contact with some 30 East Bay law enforcement officers filed a $66 million claim against the city of Oakland on Friday as prosecutors filed criminal charges against two of the officers implicated.

The claim says that the teen was trapped in the sex trade as a minor and reached out to Oakland police for help.

Police sex scandal: The punishments recommended for Richmond cops

Bay Area police sex scandal: Woman freed from Florida jail “Instead they continued to exploit her by trading money, information, and/or protection for sex. Instead of helping (her) find a way out of exploitation, they furthered and deepened her spiral down into the sex trade,” the claim reads.

Attorneys for the teen, who previously went by the name Celeste Guap but has since disavowed the alias, could not be reached to talk about the $66 million claim. If the claim is denied by the city, it clears a path for a civil lawsuit. This newspaper is not using the teen’s real name because she is the victim of a sex crime.

Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf, who’s been outspoken in her condemnation of Oakland officers involved in the scandal, declined to comment.

Retired Oakland police Sgt. LeRoy Johnson and former Livermore Officer Daniel Black were the first to be criminally charged Friday in connection with the sex scandal involving the sexually exploited teenager and multiple law enforcement agencies. Alameda County District Attorney Nancy O’Malley said that she plans on charging four more Oakland officers and one Contra Costa County sheriff’s deputy.

The allegations came to light after Oakland police Officer Brendan O’Brien committed suicide last year and left a note naming officers who had sex with the teen. The woman turned 19 last month but began having sex with officers while she was underage.

It is the largest law enforcement sex scandal in the East Bay’s history, and the fallout caused Oakland to go through three police chiefs in nine days in June. Schaaf announced that there would be firings, suspensions and more training for officers involved.

The teen returned to the Bay Area this week after being released from a Florida jail, where she was held for two weeks after biting an employee at the Florida drug rehabilitation center she entered in late August. Richmond police have been criticized for helping send her to Florida, given that Richmond officers are implicated in the scandal, and the teen is a witness in the criminal investigation.

Johnson, a 50-year-old Texas resident, is charged with misdemeanor failure to report child abuse. During his career, one of Johnson’s assignments was supervising the police dispatch unit, in which the teenager’s mother has worked for years.

Johnson is described as a family friend of the teen and her mother in a probable cause declaration written by Jim Taranto of the Alameda County DA’s Office. He wrote the teen was vacationing in Puerto Rico with her mother in September 2015 when she sent private messages to Johnson through Facebook and disclosed that she had had sex with members of the Oakland Police Department.

“Tell me you were and (sic) adult,” Johnson allegedly wrote.

“I’d be lying,” the teen replied, according to the DA’s Office.

The teen asked Johnson not to report what she said, and he did not, despite being a mandated reporter legally bound to report child sex abuse, Taranto said.

Black, 49, was charged with five misdemeanor charges: two counts of “engaging or agreeing to engage in prostitution,” and one count each of engaging in lewd conduct and furnishing a minor with alcohol. He retired from the Livermore Police Department earlier this month.

The DA’s Office said in court documents that Black picked her up in his motor home and took her out to dinner in Albany and Berkeley on April 8 and April 16. Afterward, on both occasions, they engaged in sexual activity in the motor home.

“Just to be clear, I’m not paying you, but I will buy you dinner,” Black told the teen, according to Taranto.

Black and Johnson are scheduled to be arraigned on the charges Oct. 4. They have not been arrested in the case.

Johnson, O’Brien, former Oakland police Chief Sean Whent, and nine officers identified by their initials are named as respondents in the teen’s claim with the city of Oakland. In his suicide note, O’Brien claimed he never had sexual contact with the teen. O’Malley said it doesn’t appear they ever met in person.

The teen’s claim said that she met O’Brien in 2015 “while running from a pimp,” and instead of protecting her, O’Brien began sexually exploiting her.

“In addition to Officer O’Brien, Officer G.L. and other officers and deputies also sexually exploited (her) when she was a minor, and continuing into 2016, after she turned 18, providing her protection and information about police business for sexual favors,” the claim reads. “None of them ever offered her information or help in escaping from sexual exploitation.”

At a news conference last week, O’Malley said she found evidence of officers committing crimes in Contra Costa, San Francisco and San Joaquin counties. Authorities in those jurisdictions say they are conducting ongoing investigations into the matter.

Both the Oakland police and the Alameda County District Attorney’s Office declined to comment Friday.
