Saying he “terrorized a community of students and victimized a number of women,” Maricopa County Attorney Rachel Mitchell announced the indictment of Djimon Boggs for a series of crimes, including sexual assaults in Tempe.
Boggs, 24, faces three counts of sexual assault, two counts of attempt to commit sexual assault, two counts of aggravated assault, two counts of burglary in the first degree, one count of burglary in the second degree and two counts of kidnapping, according to a release from the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office.
The MCAO alleges the crimes took place during September and October.
“This individual terrorized a community of students and victimized a number of women, some who will have scars that last a lifetime,” Mitchell said.
“Given the repeated offenses and the violent nature of these crimes, our office asked for and was granted a high bond that will keep the defendant in jail while he awaits trial.”
Mitchell previously said her office asked that Boggs should not be allowed to post bail, but a judge decided he would be able to post a $1 million cash-only bond.
The charges stem from a series of incidents near South Gary Drive and East 8th Street in Tempe, police said.
