A Franklin man has been indicted by the Simpson County Grand Jury on single charges of rape and sexual misconduct.
The indictment says the charges against Christopher Michael Turner, 29, stem from alleged incidents in 2021.
According to the Commonwealth, on or about Jan. 23, 2021, through Dec. 12, 2021, in Simpson, County, Ky., and being against the peace and dignity of the Commonwealth of Kentucky, the above-named defendant knowingly and unlawfully committed the offense of Rape, 1st Degree, when the defendant engaged in sexual intercourse with the victim by forcible compulsion multiple times.
According to the Commonwealth, on or about Jan. 23, 2021, through Dec. 12, 2021, in Simpson, County, Ky., and being against the peace and dignity of the Commonwealth of Kentucky, the above-named defendant knowingly and unlawfully committed the offense of Sexual Misconduct, when the defendant engaged in sexual intercourse or deviant sexual intercourse with a victim without consent.
The Franklin Police investigated.
The function of the grand jury is to determine whether there is sufficient competent evidence to believe that a crime has been committed by a specific individual. This does not mean those individuals are guilty of a crime. The innocence or guilt is finally determined by a petit jury at trial.
