An employee at the Lewis State Prison complex in Buckeye has accused a sergeant of sexual assault. The sergeant has been arrested and is facing charges.
Ramon Godoy, 33, is currently facing multiple charges, including sexual assault, aggravated assault with impeded breathing, and kidnapping.
Based on court documents, Buckeye police initiated an investigation into Godoy on July 7 following a woman’s report of her supervisor’s alleged misconduct at the prison complex.
The purported victim reported to the authorities that Godoy allegedly choked her, forcefully pressed her against a wall, and initiated a sexual assault. According to her account, she clearly expressed her refusal and requested him to cease, yet he persisted. Additionally, she mentioned experiencing difficulty in breathing throughout the attack.
According to court documents, the victim decided to leave her shift early following the reported assault. Afterwards, she reached out to her friend, who assisted her in reporting the incident to the police.
According to reports, on July 9, Godoy made a phone call to the victim and begged her not to report him, expressing his concern about potentially losing his job due to his own foolish actions. According to the documents, he expressed remorse multiple times during the phone conversation, following the victim’s assertion that he did not have her consent.
Godoy was eventually apprehended during his employment at the prison. According to reports, the individual reportedly confessed to authorities that they restrained the victim’s neck for a brief period, forcefully pressed her against a wall, and committed a sexual assault. Authorities stated that he admitted his responsibility in the incident and held a position of authority over the woman.
