A Maryland man suspected of raping a lady last year killed that woman last week after he was released from jail in April due to coronavirus, police say.
Ibrahim Bouaichi, 33, was tracked down by police Wednesday and seemed to have shot himself once they trapped to him, consistent with the Washington Post. He was reportedly in grave condition.
Bouaichi is suspected of raping Karla Dominguez in October 2019, the Post reported. Dominguez testified against Bouiachi at a preliminary hearing last December.
Bouaichi was held without bond in Alexandria, Va., until April, consistent with the Post. Pre-pandemic, he was scheduled to face trial March 30 on charges of rape, sodomy, strangulation, abduction and burglary.
As coronavirus spread in March and April, Bouaichi’s lawyers argued for his release, the Associated Press reported. Prosecutors objected, but a judge sided with the defense and released Bouaichi on $25,000 bond, with stipulations that he wasn’t to go away his house apart from meetings with “lawyers or pretrial services officials.”
Bouaichi broke those rules in May, when he was found at a Wendy’s drive-thru in his hometown of Greenbelt, Md., consistent with the Post. Police said he acted strangely and rammed a cop car together with his own vehicle, resulting in various assault and traffic charges.
But cops in Maryland were unaware of the pending rape case in Virginia and released Bouaichi from jail on May 11.
Police say Bouaichi returned to Alexandria on July 29 and fatally shot Dominguez outside her apartment, the Post reported. Cops found little or no information about Dominguez aside from that she was from Venezuela and had no family living within the U.S.
