    Woman Raped, Beaten, 3 Illegalls Held

    Woman raped, beaten; 3 held

    Two Greenwood men and a juvenile boy are accused of raping and beating a woman they did not know in a car after abducting her from an apartment complex parking lot, police said.

    The rape by someone other than an acquaintance was the first in the county in the past five years, Johnson County Prosecutor Lance Hamner said.

    The three, who are all illegal immigrants, charged are:

    # Luis-Felipe Gomez Coronel, 19, 895 Parliament Place, Apt. 719

    # Roberto Rodriguez-Martinez, 22, 1199 Scarborough Lane, Apt. 821

    # Alvaro A. Perez, 17, 895 Parliament Place, Apt. 719

    The Daily Journal typically does not print the names of juveniles unless they are charged with crimes that would be felonies if committed by an adult. A suspect who is older than 16 and charged with rape is considered an adult, Hamner said.

    All three are charged with rape, criminal confinement and sexual battery, which are Class B, C and D felonies, respectively.

    Coronel and Rodriguez-Martinez also were charged with attempted criminal deviate conduct, a Class B Felony.

    Rodriguez-Martinez and Perez also were charged with criminal deviate conduct, a Class B Felony.

    If convicted on all charges, each person would face up to 30 years in prison, Hamner said.

    On Saturday, the 26-year-old woman and her boyfriend were walking through the Westminster Apartment complex parking lot near U.S. 31 and County Line Road around 3 a.m. when one of the men called her over to a car.

    Martinez grabbed the woman by her hair and put her in the car and sped away, according to the prosecutor's report. The three each touched her inappropriately, held her down and raped and beat her, according to the report.

    They also tried to force her to perform other sex acts.

    She said she did not know the men.

    "This was a classic stranger rape case, which is particularly disturbing because it's not the type of crime we have historically seen in Johnson County. In fact, it's very rare," Hamner said.

    The woman did not know where they were driving but said at one point the men stopped and then stopped again near a field and tried to kick her out.

    She had injuries all over her body, including arms, legs, face, chest and back. The three also had injuries and scratches on their bodies from the woman fighting back.

    The two men and juveniles later took the woman back to the apartment complex, and her boyfriend found the three men in their green Subaru Legacy on Scarborough Lane near the complex.

    When the boyfriend saw the three, they ran away, and the boyfriend flagged someone down to call the police.

    Police found two of them after they fled to a video store south of U.S. 31 and County Line Road and the other after he fled to a fabric store north of the intersection.

    The boyfriend drove around the area for about one to two hours looking for the three and his girlfriend after she was abducted, according to the report.

    He said he didn't call police first because he panicked.

    Police collected DNA evidence from the two men, the juvenile and the women and also found the woman's undergarments in the vehicle, according to the report.

    Greenwood Police Department officials arrested the men almost a week ago, but Police Chief Joe Pitcher wouldn't release any details about the crime or suspects.

    Public information on the case had to be obtained through the prosecutor's office after the men were charged Tuesday.

    Because they are illegal immigrants and a flight risk, Coronel and Rodriguez-Martinez are in the Johnson County jail without bond, and Perez is in the county's juvenile detention center without bond, Hamner said.

    Good and I hope they get their full dues. You don't know what I would think would be fair and just treatment.

    Prosecutor: Men Abducted, Raped Woman

    Prosecutor: Men Abducted, Raped Woman
    Woman Badly Beaten, Police Say

    GREENWOOD, Ind. -- Three men abducted a 26-year-old woman from an apartment complex and raped her last weekend, police said.

    All three men, Roberto Martinez, Alvaro Perez and Luis Coronel, are illegal immigrants who haven't been in the U.S. long, 6News' Ben Morriston reported.

    "Apparently one of them called to her. She turned toward him to see what he wanted and another one grabbed her … from behind by her hair and dragged her into a car," said Johnson County Prosecutor Lance Hamner.

    The victim, who was taken from outside the Westminster apartments, was held in a car and driven around as the men took turns raping her while she tried to fight them off, police said.

    The woman told police that the men drank beer as they drove for at least an hour during the attack.

    "She was apparently beaten. She had a lot of physical injuries … where she'd been scratched and hit," Hamner said.

    The woman was eventually returned to the apartment complex.

    "This is very rare we have this violent of a crime … in this city," said Greenwood Police Chief Joe Pitcher.

    Police said the men were taken into custody outside strip malls on U.S. 31 shortly after the attack.

    Each of them faces charges of rape, criminal deviate conduct and confinement and could be sentenced to up to 30 years of prison if convicted on all counts.

    Hamner said that because each of the suspects are in the U.S. illegally, they are a flight risk. That's why they were held without bond in the Johnson County Jail.
