On Jan. 22, 2020, Agovino returned and demanded she strip. She refused and he started groping her over her clothing.
He was unaware that she had managed to start recording what was going on. He demanded she go into the bedroom, but she refused and insisted he leave.
The recording lasted six minutes. She turned it over to investigators and Agovino was arrested three weeks later.
Agovino, an Orangetown resident, was forced to resign last year as a result of the charges. He had been a police officer for 12 years.
So to be clear, the last encounter occurred in January 2020. First off, why did it take three weeks to arrest him? Secondly, why did it take another year to leave the force? And keep in mind, he wasn't fired, he was forced to resign.
I swear, these cops stick together and protect and serve no one but themselves...
