WASHINGTON (WUSA9) — A second alleged victim has come forward in the case of a D.C. police officer and local pastor who is accused of sexually assaulting an underage girl.

Officer Darrell Best faces four counts, including first-degree sex abuse while armed.

One teen says Best forced himself on her in an office inside D.C. police headquarters.

The two victims say Best was armed when he sexually assaulted them and they tried desperately to get him to stop.

Best is not just a cop; he’s also a youth minister. The younger teen, who is just 16, says he called her out of choir practice and repeatedly pushed her down on his desk and sexually assaulted her.
