Woman and her boyfriend ‘gang-raped young child at least twice’
A woman and her boyfriend gang-raped a young child at least twice, police claim. Ashley Romans, 26, and partner Drew Farnell, 29, were arrested and booked into jail over the weekend amid claims they attacked the youngster, who is younger than 13, on at least two separate occasions.
Romans, from Keithville, Louisiana, was arrested Friday and charged with first-degree rape. Farnell was nabbed by US Marshals the next day after reportedly going on the run, and has been charged with first-degree rape, as well as sexual battery.
Both are being held without bond in Caddo Correctional Center. Investigators have not divulged the gender of their alleged victim, or how the child knew their alleged attackers.
They have also declined to say how Romans and Farnells’ alleged rapes were uncovered, KTAL reported.
