Probation officer Zachary Thomas Bailey is accused of raping a woman in her home

A woman reported feared no one would believe she was being sexually assaulted by her parole officer, so she filmed him raping her.

Zachary Thomas Bailey was arrested after two alleged attacks on a woman in Coral Springs, Florida.

The 50-year-old is accused of targeting the victim, telling her he needed to do a ‘study’ of her home.

The victim said he forced himself on her twice, while her daughter was in the next room.

Police Lt Joe McCue told 7 News: ‘The victim said “This is rape. This is rape. I don’t want you to do this.”

‘Unfortunately, she was in fear that if she reported this, he would violate her probation and put her back in jail.’

On the first occasion, Bailey allegedly put his hands down the front of the victim’s pants.

The following day, he allegedly followed the victim into her bedroom and asked for a massage.

When she refused, it is claimed he took off his clothes, put a condom on, pushed her onto the bed and raped her.

The victim said she recorded it on her phone because she feared police would not believe her.

Bailey, who worked with the Florida Department of Corrections for more than 25 years, was sacked on Wednesday.
