Police say Lynnwood man, 19, raped woman as she was dying of overdose

MARTHA LAKE, Wash. – A 19-year-old Lynwood man was arrested Tuesday after a police found he didn’t help a woman after she overdosed on drugs, but instead raped her as she was dying and put her body in a bin that he intended to bury.

The man was arrested on suspicion of manslaughter, controlled-substance homicide and second-degree rape. Q13 News isn’t naming the man because he hasn’t been charged.

According to allegations in court documents:

The man and the victim were at a party at the Martha Lake Mobile Home Manor on Saturday, and after she snorted a line of Percocet he gave her a “dab” of liquid THC. She quickly passed out.

The man allegedly proceeded to rape her, texting pictures of her to his friends and writing “LOL I think she OD’d, still breathing."

A friend later said the man said “she died having sex with me,” and took that as a boast.

Once the victim was dead, the man saw a Facebook post from the victim’s mom saying she was missing that asked people for help finding her. He used the victim’s fingerprint to get access to her phone, and fabricated a SnapChat post on her account to give the impression she’d decided to run away from home.

He then threw the phone into the woods behind his work.

The man admitted to police he stuffed her body in a bin, which police later found in a bedroom in the mobile home.
