"A jury of his peers convicted Longmire for this brutal and terrifying attack, said District Attorney Bragg. New Yorkers and tourists alike deserve to enjoy New York's parks without fearing for their safety."
"Longmire approached her while exposing himself, causing the victim to scream and try to run away. Longmire tackled the victim from behind, pinning her down to the ground and attempted to rape her."
"Forensic evidence ultimately tied Longmire to this crime, with genetic evidence linking back to Longmire being found in the survivor's bikini bottoms."
Jermaine Longmire, 45, was convicted of attempted rape and sexual abuse for attacking a woman in Central Park. The incident occurred on June 24, 2024, when Longmire tackled a 21-year-old woman while she was sunbathing. He exposed himself and attempted to rape her, but she fought him off. Longmire fled the scene but was later arrested due to an active warrant for a previous groping incident. Forensic evidence linked him to the crime, and he is set to be sentenced on May 12.
