Share

The arraignment for a 27-year-old man who allegedly posed as medical professional to sexually assault an Illinois woman in Glendale after she replied to his Craigslist ad for a personal assistant was postponed on Wednesday, police said.

Glendale police officials say Garry Dwayne Boga targeted women from the Midwest who were looking to breakout in Hollywood. Detectives also believe Boga may have other victims after they discovered a detailed list of young women, according to Sgt. Tom Lorenz.

Boga was charged with a felony count of sexual penetration by a foreign object, felony sexual battery by fraud, two felony counts of assault on his cohabitant and felony robbery, according to a Los Angeles County Superior Court criminal complaint.

He was arrested March 27 after the 21-year-old woman told officers answered his Craigslist job posting for a personal assistant and met him in Hollywood, according to police.

Anyone who has been victimized or has information about Boga may call Det. Ernesto Torres at (818) 548-3106. To remain anonymous, call Glendale Crime Stoppers at (800) 222-8477.
