Carrollton police say they arrested a suspected serial rapist that is HIV positive. Police fear there may be more victims across the metroplex.
Police say they met with a sexual assault victim getting treatment at a Carrollton hospital on Feb. 11. Police then arrested Carlton Tambaoga, 25, for the alleged crime. They determined he has HIV.That initial investigation led police to identify at least five more sexual assault victims.Police believe Tamboaga has more victims throughout the DFW Metroplex, in Houston and Atlanta, Georgia, that haven’t come forward yet. Amy Jones is the CEO of the Dallas Area Rape Crisis Center.
There is still a lot of shame," Jones said. "There is still so many individuals in their cultural communities, maybe in their families, in their community of faith, their work or even at large, that feel they’re not able to come forward and speak about this."Jones says even if sexual assault survivors don’t want to file a police report, they should get tested for STIs. While Tambaoga sits in the Denton County Jail, Jones commends the people who helped police arrest him.
