A Hempfield man is charged with raping a woman who has a mental disability.
The Trib reports that the charges were filed yesterday against 56-year-old Dennis Hertzog. The victim told police that she was assaulted multiple times between November and January at a location in Hempfield. During an investigation into an unrelated matter, troopers said a girl told them Hertzog put duct tape on her mouth and locked her in a basement during the summer of 2022.
Hertzog is free on $125,000 bail, and preliminary hearings are set for November 14th.
