A San Francisco police officer suspended four years ago for sending racist and homophobic text messages to other officers pleaded guilty Thursday to robbing two city banks last year, officials said.


Rain Daugherty, 44, pleaded guilty in federal court to two counts of bank robbery as part of a negotiated deal with prosecutors, according the the U.S. Attorney’s Office.


Daugherty was indicted on Jan. 10 for the Nov. 29 robbery at the East West Bank on Irving Street in Sunset District and the Dec. 13 robbery at the Cathay Bank on Clement Street in the Richmond District. In both robberies he handed the teller a note demanding money.


He was arrested on Dec. 18 and faced two bank robbery charges for each incident, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office. Daugherty agreed to plead guilty to two of the charges in exchange for prosecutors dropping the remaining two charges, officials said.
