A judge refused to allow prosecutors to add two rape charges from Los Angeles to the murder case against Paul Flores in the 1996 disappearance of Kristin Smart.
A San Luis Obispo County judge Wednesday refused to allow prosecutors to add two rape charges from Los Angeles to the murder case against Paul Flores in the 1996 disappearance of Kristin Smart.
According to San Luis Obispo County Deputy Dist. Atty. Christopher Peuvrelle, Flores had a history of raping women who were either drunk or intoxicated. On the night Smart disappeared, Flores tried to force himself on women at the party they both attended, authorities have said.But Van Rooyen said there is no evidence of a sex crime in the charged murder and the evidence from the Los Angeles incidents cannot be used as a substitute.
During the hearing, prosecutors said they had homemade videos of Flores with women who appeared intoxicated during sex and recovered prescription drugs that could be used in the commission of date rape. San Luis Obispo County Sheriff’s Office investigators also uncovered evidence of videos on Flores’ hard drives depicting rape and rape of intoxicated women along with search engine data of the subject matter.
