Rape accused remains on remand

A rape accused failed to have his 2024 cases dismissed after a magistrate ruled that the allegations were not ‘victimless’ crimes.

Stephon Davidson Freeman, of no fixed address, is accused of having sexual intercourse with a woman without her consent on May 24, 2024. He is also charged with breaking into the woman’s house and stealing an $850 mobile phone, a $120 bag and other belongings on the same date.

Constable Troy Tudor told the court he had not yet received instructions on the case but had spoken to the investigator to “push” to have documents brought before the court.
