Convicted Sexual Predator Facing More Charges
TOLEDO -- A convicted sexual predator may have
struck again. This time, Toledo police say the sex offender lured a 5-year-old
girl into his house and raped her.
It happened in the 2000 block of Price street in East Toledo.
43-year-old James Martin is locked up in the Lucas County Jail charged with
kidnapping, rape and gross sexual imposition. He was questioned Thursday morning
and arrested.
Martin is a registered sexual predator, the most serious category for sex
offenders. He was just released from prison last November after police say he
served 15 years for a sex crime against a 6-year-old girl.
Martin lives at home with his mother on Price street. About three weeks ago, a
5-year-old girl, who lives in the neighborhood was out looking for the family
dog. Police say Martin grabbed her hand, took her into his house and raped the
girl.
The girl recently told her grandmother about what happened and she went to the
police.
"When he come over, he just took her by the hand and led her to his house and I
mean split second because I keep checking on her every now and then and it was
just a split second, that happened," says the victim's grandmother.
Under Ohio law, since the victim was under the age of 12 years old, Martin could
get life in prison if convicted. His case will be presented to the grand jury
Friday.
