RE: PRESS RELEASE – JEAN CARLOS COLON INDICTMENT

DISTRICT ATTORNEY D. HOLLEY CARNRIGHT ANNOUNCES:  ELLENVILLE MAN INDICTED FOR RAPE AND BURGLARY

Jean Carlos Colon, 23, of 5 Glass Street in Ellenville, was indicted Monday, August 7, 2017, by an Ulster County Grand Jury. The Grand Jury returned a two count indictment accusing Colon of Rape in the First Degree, a Class “B” violent offense and Burglary in the Second Degree, a Class “C” violent offense.  Colon is charged with breaking into a home in the early morning hours of June 23, 2017 and forcibly raping an adult female who had been sleeping in her bed.  

The indictment follows an investigation by the Ellenville Police Department with assistance from the Ulster County Sheriff’s Office, the New York State Police Forensic Identification Unit and the Ulster County District Attorney’s Office. 

Colon was arrested in May for another forcible sex crime against a different victim in Ellenville but both felony and misdemeanor charges arising out of that incident were dismissed by a previous Grand Jury.  

Special Victims Bureau Chief Katherine R. Van Loan, is handling the prosecution for the Ulster County District Attorney’s Office.  The defendant is represented by the Ulster County Public Defender’s Office.
