A Los Angeles man arrested last year on accusations that he forcibly raped numerous past romantic partners was indicted by the Los Angeles County Criminal Grand Jury on 26 charges.
Terrance Hawkins, 42, has been charged with crimes against 11 victims, including ten counts of forcible rape, nine counts of intimate partner violence and three counts for stalking. He also faces charges for animal cruelty and gun violations.
At the time of his arrest last April, authorities described Hawkins as a “serial rapist” with a “long history of briefly dating women, abusing them, and filming them during sexual intercourse.”
He met many of his victims on dating apps and social media, officials from the Los Angeles Police Department said.
On Wednesday, the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office unsealed the Grand Jury indictment, which detailed Hawkins’ alleged crimes.
