A senior New Jersey parole officer is accused of raping a woman on her front lawn, “only 10 feet from her front door” — as her parents slept inside, according to a criminal complaint and a relative.
Freddy Brambila, 30, has been charged with two counts of sexual assault for the alleged rape on Sept. 8 at the woman’s Washington Township home, where the three-year New Jersey State Parole Board employee tackled the victim after they watched the Philadelphia Eagles game at a Sicklerville bar, according to a criminal complaint and one of her relatives who spoke to NJ.com.
The woman was at the bar with a friend, whose boyfriend knew Brambila, according to the unidentified relative.
Brambila gave the victim and her friend a ride home after the game, dropping off her friend first before pulling up to her home, where he tackled her to the ground as she walked past the parole officer’s truck, the relative said.
Brambila then attacked the woman on the front lawn, penetrating her with fingers and his genitals “only 10 feet from her front door with her parents sleeping inside,” the relative and court papers said. Such alleged rapes are charged as “sexual assault” in New Jersey, according to state statutes.

Brambila, who was also charged with driving while intoxicated and refusal to submit to chemical testing in Stratford Borough that same day, has since been suspended without pay as his criminal case unfolds. He currently earns $69,364 annually, a state database shows.
The parole officer was taken into custody two days after the alleged attack and has since been released after making an initial court appearance, NJ.com reports.
A State Parole Board spokesman confirmed an ongoing investigation into the charges, but declined further comment.
Brambila — whose Facebook profile picture shows him in a shirt that reads “Nothing tequila can’t fix” — had little to say when reached early Thursday by The Post.
“You’ll have to talk to my lawyer,” Brambila said before hanging up.
An attorney representing Brambila did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
