Graham, 18, was charged Friday, June 21, 2013 with multiple felonies after he allegedly took off his ankle bracelet while on furlough from prison and sexually assaulted the woman whom he had burglarized in the past. Graham told police he purposely returned to the woman’s house to scare her because she had sent him away for 14 months.MINNEAPOLIS – A Minnesota man on furlough from prison removed an ankle bracelet that monitored his whereabouts, returned to the home of his prior burglary victim and raped her, authorities said Friday.
Curtez Deshawn Graham, 18, of St. Paul, told police he wanted to scare the 65-year-old woman and send her a message because he was mad that she sent him away for 14 months, according to the criminal complaint. Graham is charged with eight counts, including criminal sexual conduct.
He appeared in Ramsey County District Court on Friday, but proceedings were continued to next week. It was not immediately clear if he had an attorney.
According to the criminal complaint, Graham first entered the woman’s home in October 2011 and robbed her at knifepoint. She called police, but Graham was not caught. A month later, he entered her home again with a bandanna over his face and demanded money. At some point during that incident, he said he returned because the woman was so nice the first time, and added: “Now remember – you didn’t call the police last time, don’t call them this time,” the complaint said.
Graham was later arrested and placed in Boys Totem Town, a residential campus for delinquent juveniles. He ran away in March 2012 and was then sent to the state prison in Red Wing.
