“A male inmate detained by the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office is accused of sexually assaulting a female inside the Intake Transfer and Release Facility near 27th Avenue and Lower Buckeye Road.
Justin Avery had been arrested on April 12th, accused of assaulting five different women near Arizona State’s Tempe campus.
Before 4 a.m. on April 17th, Avery was on the male side of the court waiting area of the Intake Transfer and Release facility.
The facility is separated into two sides – a male waiting area with about a dozen inmates on this day – and a female waiting side with just a couple of inmates.
Security camera surveillance video obtained via a public records request by ABC15 shows Avery dropping to the ground on the male side and beginning to crawl over to the female side of the facility, undetected by the detention officer on duty.
When questioned later Avery told investigators he crawled like a “spider,” according to court documents, going on to say he was drawn to one of the females by “her fat ass.”
Avery then got behind the woman who was asleep – and lowered his pants.
Court records say another woman said aloud “hey, get off of her.” The video then shows Avery shushing that woman. The noise alerted the officer who called for backup. The entire incident lasted about a minute and a half.” – ABC 15 | Posted by Thrillz
