A serial rapist was sentenced to between 15 and 30 years for sexual attacks on three women, beating his pregnant girlfriend, and threatening a co-worker with a gun.
According to Penn Live News:
Dauphin County President Judge Richard A. Lewis imposed the term Monday on Jermaine Marks, 32, of the 2100 block of Sir Lancelot Drive, Lower Paxton Twp., after he pleaded guilty to three counts of rape, aggravated assault, simple assault, unlawful restraint, two counts of terroristic threats and one count each of involuntary deviate sexual intercourse and sexual assault.
Marks, who was scheduled for trial next week, decided to enter the negotiated plea after Lewis denied several defense motions, including a request to separate the rape cases for trial. Deputy District Attorney Jennifer Gettle argued they were all part of the same scheme, since Marks picked up the women, two of whom were admitted prostitutes, and violently attacked them.
Marks was arrested after prostitutes alleged a man in a Dodge Stratus was raping them in the same general area.
