| Comments: | In 1999, Subject Demetrius L. VAUGHAN was convicted in the State of Ohio of Sexual Battery 3rd Degree. According to official records, VAUGHAN (Age 17) sexually assaulted a known 16-year-old female acquaintance. The victim was the girlfriend of VAUGHAN's cousin. The victim had been left alone with VAUGHAN and was dependant on VAUGHAN to give her a ride home. VAUGHAN indicated that he wanted to be compensated for giving her a ride. He told her that if she wanted to get home and use his phone, he wanted something from her in return. The victim started to cry and told him that she just wanted to go home. VAUGHAN told the victim that if she wanted to get home, she better do what he said. VAUGHAN took the victim to an isolated location and forced her into performing oral sex on him. He then took her to his residence where he physically pulled her into his bedroom. VAUGHAN then forced himself on the victim and sexually assaulted her despite the victim's attempts to make him stop. At the completion of the sexual assault, VAUGHAN then drove the victim to an area unfamiliar to the victim. He dropped her off after berating the victim for her poor sexual performance during the assault. After VAUGHAN left, the victim went to a nearby residence and used the telephone to call the police and report the incident. VAUGHAN was initially charged with 3 counts of Rape and one count of Kidnapping. He later pled to the Sexual Battery 3rd Degree charge for this incident. While awaiting trial for this sexual assault, VAUGHAN committed a robbery. He ran up behind the adult female victim and struck her and knocked her to the ground. VAUGHAN then grabbed the victim's purse and fled to a waiting vehicle. VAUGHAN was later caught and identified in this robbery and was convicted of Robbery 2nd Degree. VAUGHAN does not have any other known criminal history. It does not appear that VAUGHAN has completed any Sex Offender Treatment Program at this time. Due to VAUGHAN's sexual and criminal history, he has been classified as a LEVEL 3 Sex Offender. This allows the Pierce County Sheriff's Department to disclose relevant, necessary, and accurate information to the public at large. This current notification is being done, because VAUGHAN has recently moved from the State of Ohio to an area in Pierce County. Sex Offender registration laws allow for the tracking of sexual offenders. It does not control the location of where an offender chooses to live. |
