Raymond Rukonwitz, 35, has been sentenced to 25 years in prison for sexually assaulting a woman and sextorting her afterward.
During summer 2024, the Maricopa Community Colleges Police Department was investigating a threats case when the victim reported she had been sexually assaulted by Rukonwitz a couple of months earlier. They notified Mesa Police, who began investigating the sexual assault.
The victim told detectives she met Rukonwitz earlier that year at a college. When she left work one night in April, his car was parked next to hers near Dobson Road and Rio Salado Parkway. Rukonwitz told her to get in his car, and when she refused, he took her glasses and cell phone.
