Ugh, actually gross. And can you realistically in the moment refuse to hand over your phone? I think I’d be too nervous to say no.

McKnight, who resigned from the force in August, is accused of taking cell phones from nine different women and, upon finding nude or sexually explicit pictures, taking pictures of them with his own phone. McKnight allegedly told the women that he needed their phones to confirm they had insurance or to verify their identity.

What a ridiculous reason to request an unlocked phone...
