A few months back, I devoted an entire weekend to presenting information about this disturbing case. It’s one that had several of my women friends nervous even after all these years.
Well, thanks to a tip from someone in our area, the person dubbed the “East Coast Rapist” was arrested late last week. Here’s the latest on the story from washingtonpost.com:
>>Police trace suspect’s movements in East Coast rape case
Police investigating the suspected East Coast Rapist on Monday said they are beginning to piece together the man’s movements over the past 14 years and asked women who think they may have been victimized by him to come forward.
Aaron H. Thomas, 39, who was arrested Friday in Connecticut, has been linked by DNA to 12 rapes and other attacks on women since 1997 that spanned four states, including Virginia and Maryland.
