Dion Martin remembers walking home one night in the mid-1980s when Roger Golubski, a Kansas City, Kansas, police officer, pulled up, handcuffed him and placed him in his squad car.
Martin claims Golubski drove him the riverbank of an industrial area, where he and other KCK officers forced him to play “Russian roulette,” which, decades later, he described as torture.
“I thought I was going to die,” Martin told The Star. “I really did.”
Martin testified that he believed he was taken to the riverbank three or four times. Golubski’s lawyer denies the story.
Golubski’s 35-year career as a KCKPD officer, detective and captain has come under intense scrutiny in recent months. He has been federally indicted twice since September on allegations that he raped Black women and used his position to protect criminals who sex trafficked underage girls in the 1990s.
