Again a woman alleges indecent assault by same cop during a narcotics raid
She said she was too scared, not just of the officer who assaulted her, but of his friends.
She knew that filing criminal charges was no guarantee that he'd get locked up, she said.
"I didn't want to walk down the street and worry what would happen," she said.
Raheem said he understood her decision.
"They threatened her. . . . They were police officers and they had her cell-phone number and her address," Raheem said. "She had nowhere to escape to."
DiLacqua, of police Internal Affairs, said Naomi's case remains open.
"We continue to explore possible DNA evidence," he said.
"At this point in time we don't have a confirmed link. Some forensic testing is done and some is continuing," DiLacqua said. "There's a series of tests that have to be done. At this point in time, there's no confirmation or elimination.
"We haven't given up hope of finding a forensic link," he added. "We're still exploring it."
On Jan. 12 - three months after the alleged assault - police brass put Tolstoy back on the street.
"At that point, there was no further evidence that had been developed and we had difficulty in locating [Naomi]," DiLacqua said.
"She ceased to cooperate with us and went south on us," he said. "We had ID issues and we still had no DNA."
Asked about the threatening phone calls that Naomi said she received, DiLacqua replied: "I have no comment on that."
An Internal Affairs investigator and an FBI agent showed up at Naomi's apartment last week and asked questions about her assertion that two officers stopped her two days after the raid, threatening and handcuffing her, according to Naomi.
Tolstoy out of action
Last month, on May 20, police brass again put Tolstoy on desk duty and this time took his service weapon.
DiLacqua declined to give a specific reason.
"If other information looks bad, if it starts to look more serious, we have to ratchet up. . . .'" he said. "That's what happened. Based on other information, we ratcheted up."
From Jan. 12 to May 20, Tolstoy participated in 30 drug raids, according to a Daily News review of search warrants.
