He was fired in 2011 after an internal investigation found he lied about sexually assaulting a minor but was rehired despite the overwhelming evidence and investigator conclusion that he was a sexual predator. Apparently, being a sexual predator isn’t enough to keep you from getting a job as cop in Beaverton. He was terminated again in 2013 for food stamp fraud.

Editor’s Note: It’s curious that the homepage of the Beaverton PD website features stories on how to protect kids (with proper  child seats) and on a 22-yo arrested for having sex with juveniles, but has no mention of their own (now former) employee’s actions…

Warren had a history of predatory behavior. According to Paris Achen at Columbian.com:

He was twice terminated from the Beaverton force.

He was initially fired in 2011 after an internal investigation found that he had lied during a 2009 criminal investigation into allegations that he sexually abused a minor when he was 17, according to The Oregonian. Investigators concluded that there was probable cause to believe Warren committed the offenses, but he was not prosecuted because the alleged victim declined to cooperate, according to the newspaper. The jury in this week’s trial did not hear about those allegations.

He was later reinstated to his job but was terminated again in August 2013 after he was indicted on charges of welfare fraud in Washington County, Ore., The Oregonian reported.

He was found guilty in February of unlawfully obtaining food stamps and first-degree theft for seeking and accepting Oregon welfare benefits while he was a resident of Washington.
