A Rock Springs man has been bound over to District Court on two counts of First Degree Sexual Assault.
Sweetwater County Sheriff Rich Haskell said William Lane McGarvey, 33, was arrested by county detectives in late December of 2010.
According to charging documents, deputies were dispatched to a residence at 50 Reliance Road, north of Rock Springs, around 2:39 AM on December 28, 2010, where the victim had appeared and knocked at the door, awakening the couple who lived there. She was "completely nude ... extremely upset and crying and shaking." The couple provided her clothing and the Sheriff’s Office was notified.
The victim told deputies and county detectives that she and a friend had been at the Astro Lounge in Rock Springs that night and accepted the offer of a ride home from a "white male with glasses that drives an older white two door passenger car that [the victim] described as like a Dodge Colt."
The victim went on to say that the man dropped her friend off at her residence, then drove to the trailer court at 50 Reliance Road where he sexually assaulted her in his car twice, pulling off her clothes in the process.
Haskell said detectives located and interviewed additional witnesses and identified the man as William McGarvey. Detective John Grossnickle then prepared a photo lineup, and a witness identified McGarvey’s photograph.
Grossnickle interviewed McGarvey that afternoon, during which he provided information and details that are referenced in his charging documents.
At his preliminary hearing in Rock Springs on February 8th, Circuit Court Judge Dan Forgey bound McGarvey’s case over to District Court. He remains in custody at the Sweetwater County Detention Center in lieu of a $60,000 cash or surety bond.
Each count of First Degree Sexual Assault carries a possible penalty of five to 50 years of imprisonment, plus a possible fine of up to $10,000. A trial date in District Court has not yet been set.
