We were told this morning by a friend that lives in Columbus, Ohio, that there is a serial rapist in that neck of the woods. Apparently he has raped several women since June of this year. This rapist is male and 5 feet 6 inches to 5 feet 9 inches tall, race unknown. He has a stalky build and is in his late 30s to early 40s. That pretty much describes many male's... But he has a pattern of raping single women in their early twenties. He carries a weapon most of the time. Police mentioned that this serial rapist, first figures out his victim's daily patterns and then breaks into their homes and attacks them while they are asleep.

There is concern amongst parents of young women who attend Ohio State University since most of their daughters are in their early 20s. OSU spreads several city blocks and it is within an urban area. This makes these students especially at risk.

The Columbus Police Department is offering a reward for any information leading to the arrest of this serial rapist. They have also posted a photo of the rapist at a teller machine, using one of several credit cards he has stolen. Call the police at (614) 645-2437 if you have any information regarding this rapist.

If you want more information on how to protect yourself, reply back to me.  COLLEGE STUDENTS especially could benefit from this information.  PROTECT YOURSELF and the space around you!  There are tools you can use.  Be pro-active and don't wait to become a victim.   This guy will hit again and again, until he's caught.

I would love to find this fat weak pathetic rapist that likes to take advantage of women with a gun. If the rapist is reading this, your days are numbered. It is in your own interest to turn yourself in, and avoid me getting my hands on you, that gun won't help you when I find you. I will make Capital Punishment seem like a joy ride, you piece of dirt.

I fit the profile and am a rape survivor, myself.

From the paper:

"We know he is male, possibly white, heavy build, between 5'7 and 5'9, and at least 200 pounds."

The first incident took place on Drivemere Road in Hilliard at 5:15 a.m. on June 4.

"The second was on Smiley's Corner at 5:30 a.m. on Sept. 12," McKee said. The man broke in to the residence and implied that he had a knife.

The third incident happened on Wakeford Street near Olentangy Commons Apartments. At 4:45 a.m. on Oct. 1, the man broke in and at knifepoint he sexually assaulted the victim.

The fourth incident happened at 5 a.m. on Oct. 5 at White Cedar Court near Galloway Road. He broke in and sexually assaulted a 22-year-old. This time, he did not steal anything.

The fifth incident was at 10:45 p.m. on Busch Boulevard, on the North Side of Columbus. On Oct. 23, the female victim came home, walked in her door and went to the bathroom. When she walked out, the man sexually assaulted her at gunpoint. He stole a credit card and used it at an ATM. This time the photo showed him wearing an R+L Carrier's hat with white writing.

The next assault, on Oct. 24, was the closest to the OSU campus. The rapist entered a King Avenue home on the Northwest Side through an unlocked door and confronted the woman with a gun.

The latest attack on Nov. 2 took place on Marlowe Court on the West Side of Columbus.

**He is now wearing a ski mask to cover his identity. He wore a baseball cap and bandana in previous attacks. Here are photos of him:

Here is a map of his attacks ( http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?client=firefox-a&am...,-82.988663&spn=0.349704,0.705185&t=p&z=11&msid=112560133704508096785.00045b8a0f45039cadbb6 ).
