Seeking Public’s Assistance to Identify Man Suspected in Multiple Rapes, Homicide


The Cleveland Division of the FBI and the Cleveland Police Department are asking the public to help identify an unknown male suspect wanted in connection with multiple rapes and a homicide in Cleveland, Ohio.

The first attack took place on May 3, 1996. The female victim was abducted, raped, shot, and left for dead. The victim survived her wounds.

Then, on February 2, 1997, the body of a female was discovered under a parked truck in a secluded truck lot. The victim had sustained severe head trauma.

On June 18, 1998, another attack occurred as the victim walked home from a friend’s house.

Thirteen years later, on December 8, 2010, a female victim was approached at a bus stop by the same unknown suspect, who asked for the time. The unknown suspect then raped the female at gunpoint.

Law enforcement investigation in Cleveland has led police to link these attacks, and they all occurred within the same half-mile radius of each other.

The FBI is offering a reward of up to $10,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the individual responsible for these crimes.

If you have any information concerning this person, please contact your local FBI office, the nearest American Embassy or Consulate, or 1-800-CALL-FBI. You can also contact the Cleveland Police Department at 216-623-5630.
