A trial for a 2002 rape has been canceled because the accused is expected to plead guilty to a charge of 1st degree rape and criminal deviant conduct against Sammy Porter Ayers, 27, both Class A felonies.
The events happened sometime after 10 PM on July 12, 2002. After meeting a woman at a mutual friend's house, Ayers drove to a park where both were going to smoke weed. After Ayers got out of the car, he returned with a gun and raped the victim, according to reports.
Ayers was supposed to return to Porter County Superior Court August 31, 2003, but skipped town before his bail hearings. He was arrested in Kentucky the following year, where he's serving time until September 2009. [Note: A lookup of the Kentucky inmate database states his convictions are for 2nd Degree Criminal Possession of forged instrument, theft over $100, and being a persistent felony offender. Porter Sam Ayers is an alias of his real name, Sammy Porter Ayers.]
