PHILADELPHIA (May 6, 2015) – Philadelphia District Attorney R. Seth Williams today announced the arrest of former Philadelphia Police Officer Jermias Olivo for intimidating a witness: his former sister-in-law. Olivo was charged with two counts of Unlawful Use of Computer and Other Computer Crimes, Intimidation of Witnesses or Victims, and Harassment.
\”Officer Jermias Olivo used his position as a Philadelphia Police Officer to obtain information that he was not authorized to have, especially since it had nothing to do with official business – which is deplorable,\” said District Attorney Seth Williams. \”Incidences of domestic violence are extremely high in the law enforcement community, and when it’s coupled with an individual that wants to use his police officer access for witness intimidation it becomes nothing short of criminal.\”
