CAUGHT: Cops Say Dorrell Is Frankford Rapist

INQUIRER: Dorrell Shaw will be charged with four of the six sexual assaults in Frankford this summer, police said today, citing a “definitive DNA link” in one of the attacks and other corroboration in the three others. Shaw, 26, a convicted burglar, who lived blocks away from several of the attacks, is in custody on a parole violation. “He’s not on the street,” said Capt. John Darby of the Special Victims Unit, “so that threat has been removed.” Shaw will be formally arrested for the assaults once the district attorney’s office approves the charges.  On Monday, police released Shaw’s name and picture as a “person of interest” in one of the assaults, after two more women were assaulted within hours of one another. The next day, Shaw’s attorney, Donald Chisholm, took his client to the police, where Shaw volunteered a DNA sample to clear his name. MORE
