Oakland man settles rape case by pleading no contest to assault
"Eric Conley, 23, pleaded no contest to assault likely to produce great bodily injury and in exchange, prosecutors dropped rape, forcible oral copulation, forcible sodomy and unlawful sexual intercourse charges against him. The case involved allegations that Conley sexually assaulted a 16-year-old girl after they met on social media. In return for his plea, Conley will be sentenced to a mix of things: He must remain in jail until January,"
"At the time, the girl told police she knew Conley from social media and contacted him for a phone charger because her cellphone was running out of battery. When he arrived in a vehicle he convinced her to get in the car with him and they drove off to another part of Oakland, where he sexually assaulted her, she told authorities."
Prosecutors in Oakland resolved a rape case by accepting a no-contest plea to assault likely to produce great bodily injury. Eric Conley, 23, pleaded to that charge while rape, forcible oral copulation, forcible sodomy and unlawful sexual intercourse counts were dismissed. The alleged victim was a 16-year-old girl who met Conley on social media, contacted him for a phone charger, entered his vehicle, and was driven to another part of Oakland where she says he sexually assaulted her. The girl texted her mother for help while the mother was filing a missing person's report. Conley will remain jailed until January, be technically sentenced to one year in county jail to be served on house arrest with an ankle monitor, receive two years of probation, and be discharged to San Joaquin County.
