How serious is the Air Force's sexual assault epidemic? Yesterday, police in northern Virginia arrested the Air Force's chief of sexual-assault prevention -- for sexual assault.
In the early hours of Sunday morning, Jeffrey Krusinski, 41, was "arrested and charged with sexual battery," according to the Arlington, Virginia police department. According to the arrest report, Krusinski drunkenly "approached a female victim in a parking lot and grabbed her breasts and buttocks."
Until today, Krusinski, a lieutenant colonel, was the chief of the Air Force's Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Program. An Air Force spokesman, Maj. Eric Badger, told Danger Room that the Air Force removed Krusinski from his position within the program, "immediately upon learning of the arrest." (It's worth mentioning that the Air Force did not initially confirm Krusinski's arrest when Danger Room spoke to a different spokeswoman, Jennifer Cassidy; and deferred that confirmation to the Arlington police.)

ARLINGTON, Va.ARLINGTON, Va. — Virginia prosecutors on Thursday dropped a sexual battery charge against an Air Force officer who once led that branch’s sexual assault response unit.
Right before the misdemeanor trial was set to begin against Lt. Col. Jeffrey Krusinski, 41, of Arlington, Commonwealth’s Attorney Theo Stamos said the sexual battery charge will be dropped and substituted with a generic assault charge. That trial will go forward at a later date.
Stamos said after the hearing that charging Krusinski with a sex offense was no longer appropriate now that her office has a more thorough understanding of the facts of what happened May 5, when Krusinski was accused of groping a woman in a Crystal City parking lot.
Krusinski was removed from his post as director of the Air Force’s Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Program after his arrest. He did not speak at Thursday’s hearing, and he ignored reporters’ questions leaving the courthouse. His defense attorney, Barry Coburn, commended prosecutors for a “careful, deliberative review” of the case.
