Cops: Woman Molested Male Friend

JANUARY 29--Meet Janice McCarl.

The Colorado woman, 53, was arrested last night for allegedly sexually assaulting a male friend late last year. McCarl, seen in a Longmont Police Department mug shot, was booked into jail on a felony charge of suspicion of sexual assault.

According to a police report, a copy of which you'll find here, the victim, 50, told investigators that he invited McCarl to a barbecue at his home last November. Following the barbecue, the man contends that he passed out and awoke to find McCarl molesting him. The man, who believes that he was somehow drugged by McCarl, told police that she 'had her hands...in his ass.'

The man said that when he later confronted McCarl, she laughed and asked, 'What did I do, kill somebody.' He added that McCarl eventually acknowledged the molestation and apologized.

McCarl's arrest was first reported today by the Daily Camera. The victim told police that, prior to the attack, he had been 'intimate' with McCarl 'approximately 5-6 times since July 2008.' McCarl is scheduled to appear this afternoon in Boulder County District Court. (4 pages)
