A jury yesterday heard closing arguments in the case of a man accused of the attempted rape of a woman while his movements were being monitored by his ankle bracelet.
Raymond Rolle's fate will be determined today when the jury is expected to return its verdict.
GPS data collected from Rolle's tracking device placed him in the vicinity of where the incident allegedly took place. In his testimony, Rolle, 33, explained his presence in the area. He said he was smoking behind the wall that bordered the complainant's property.
According to the 47-year-old complainant, she had just come out of the shower and was sitting on her bed with a towel wrapped around her when she came face to face with a naked man with nothing on besides his ankle bracelet.
The woman said the man, who had a knife in his hand, tried to impose himself on her. However, she fought him off and he eventually fled through a window.
The defendant is represented by Raymond Rolle, who is not related to him. Darnell Dorsette and Charles Newbold are the prosecutors.
