ELYRIA – Lorain police officer Stanley Marrero was sent to the Lorain County Jail for two months today after being convicted of misdemeanor charges of intimidation, dereliction of duty and public indecency.

  Marrero, a 17-year veteran of the force, hung his head as Lorain County Common Pleas Judge Edward Zaleski read the verdict and insisted that he was innocent of the charges against him before the judge handed down a six-month sentence and suspended four months.

Marrero has been suspended since last year while facing charges that he threatened to withhold police protection from a woman whom he exposed himself to in 2006. He was also charged with failing to break up a fight between two of his lovers and then not reporting the altercation.

Zaleski cleared Marrero of an additional dereliction of duty charge for allegedly ignoring a radio call from police dispatchers because he was having sex with a woman in 2001. Zaleski had already thrown out other charges during the trial last week.
