Another creep with a badge...

Now retired Philly cop Patrick Heron used his position to track down and contact underage girls, then proceeded to use the information to blackmail them into meetings and threaten them after sexually assaulting them.

A former Philadelphia police officer is accused of sexually abusing young girls and threatening witnesses. The city's district attorney fears there could be more victims.

Retired police officer Patrick Heron, 52, faces more than one dozen counts related to "unlawful sexual contact with young girls, sexually illegal and inappropriate photography with young girls, retaliation and harassment against victims and witnesses -- both adult and juvenile," Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner said at a Friday morning news conference.

Krasner called it "an extremely disturbing case" and "one of the worst I've even seen" against a former member of law enforcement.

Heron has remained jailed on $2 million bail since his arrest Wednesday on unlawful contact with a child, indecent assault on a child, forgery, harassment and related charges, according to digital court records.

"This is not only about terrible conduct, it's about a pretty terrible effort at cover-up, intimidation and abuse of pretty much every process you can imagine," Krasner said.

The DA's office urged the media to release Heron's photo since there could be more victims who have yet to come forward.
