Former DC officer already behind bars accused in several other alleged sexual assaults
Timothy Valentin faces over a dozen charges including rape and unlawful filming involving at least 10 women across Northern Virginia and Maryland, authorities said.
On Monday, Alexandria officials announced that Timothy Valentin, 30, a former Metropolitan Police Department officer, faces new indictments in cases across Alexandria and Maryland, according to police.
Detectives found that Valentin met victims on dating apps or in person and officials allege he added substances to drinks, with bromazolam detected in one victim’s urine; investigators also uncovered explicit videos and photos of women’s licenses.
One alleged attack on April 7, 2025, occurred after Valentin met a woman at Blue Sunday's Bar & Grill in Bowie and they went to Society Restaurant & Lounge in Silver Spring.
Valentin has remained jailed in Alexandria and was denied bond, authorities say, while Tara Jackson, Prince George's County State's Attorney, reviews 2024 and 2025 incidents and police urge tips to Takoma Park, PGPD, Alexandria, and Virginia lines.
Investigators say the probe already includes at least 10 victims and could expand; records show Valentin left the Metropolitan Police Department in 2022, and officials say there is no evidence he committed offenses while employed.
