Man (teen) accused of raping, beating 93-year-old charged with first-degree murder

Source: Omaha World Herald

By Lizzie Johnson

A teenager who is accused of raping and beating a 93-year-old woman in her bed has been charged with first-degree murder.

According to the prosecution, Sergio Martinez-Perez entered Louise Sollowin’s home at 1921 S. 10th St. Sunday through an unlocked door. He allegedly pummeled and sexually assaulted her before falling asleep on top of her at about 9 a.m. Four days later, Sollowin died.

Martinez-Perez admitted to police that he did it “because he was angry at women after a night of drinking.”

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement had asked the jail to hold him, an official there said. That is often an indication that the federal agency is questioning an inmate’s immigration status.

Multiply 19 by 3/5 and you get: 11.4! In immigrant years, he's 11.4 years old. Easy Squeezy.

I'm sorry. I was "riffing" on what we can expect from the right, in a rather abstract way.

But as I look at this one pic, and know he was out drinking, I have to wonder if he isn't really older.

Sick bastard. I hope he's thrown into the deepest pit.

Just as there is child abuse of a Minor, there is also Elder Abuse on someone over 65.

The woman had survived God-only-knows-what in her life, only to be murdered in her own bed by this punk. He should not see the outside of a prison cell for the rest of his miserable life.

Illegal immigrants (i.e. Hispanics) are mostly
drug mules with calves the size of cantelopes
AND rapist/murderers of grandmothers.

If there ever was a doubt that there is true evil in this world, stories like this and Ariel Castro definitively prove otherwise.

He decides to rape any woman because he couldn't find anyone else to have sex with him. He had gone drinking and a woman he was trying to pick up rejected him. He left angry and intent of finding someone else. He found a door open to this poor woman's house and brutally beat and raped her. he didn't give a crap that she could have been his great-grandmother.

I hope that he never sees the outside, sick SOB!!!!!!!!!!



I have a neighbor who is 95 years old. She's sharp, funny and volunteers every day at our church's lunch program for the homeless. The thought that some sick creep could do the same to her fills me with anger and sadness.

May Mrs. Sollowin rest in peace.
