Woman Charged With 2nd Degree Rape On A Sleeping Man.


A Seattle woman has been
charged with raping a man who told cops he awoke in his bed to find his
attacker sexually assaulting him while she had his hands pinned down,
according to a police report.


Chantae Gilman, 26, was
charged this week in connection with the alleged June 2013 attack inside
the 31-year-old victim’s Seattle apartment. Gilman has prior felony
convictions for attempted robbery and possession of a stolen vehicle, as
well as several misdemeanor 





convictions, according to court records.
As detailed in a probable cause affidavit prepared
by a Seattle Police Department detective, the victim told cops that
while he did not know Gilman, she was an acquaintance of another man who
lives in his duplex. He described Gilman as “a drug user in the area.”

The man said that on the
night of the attack he attended a birthday party for the neighbor whom
Gilman knows. “Once arriving home he fell asleep on his bed,” Detective
Roger Ishimitsu reported. “Victim slept very hard due to a long day.”
At 2 AM, the man told
cops, he awoke to find the 5’ 7”, 240-pound Gilman on top of him. The
victim said that his erect penis was inside Gilman, who had the man's “hands pinned down over his head,” as first reported by the Seattle Post-Intelligencer.

While Gilman ignored
demands to get off him, the man said, he was “able to work his way out
from underneath" her. Gilman, he added, had “told him to be quiet.” The
man subsequently succeeded in pushing Gilman from his home. Later that
day, he went to the Harborview Medical Center for a sexual assault
examination.

Court records do not reveal how Gilman (seen above) got into the victim’s apartment.
When questioned by cops,
Gilman denied knowing the victim and said she did not recall being at
his home or having sex with him. “She said that she has a mental illness
and suffers from Bipolar disorder and Psychosis,” wrote Detective
Ishimitsu.

A DNA sample collected from Gilman matched that of female DNA that was recovered from the victim’s sexual assault kit. As a result, Gilman was named in a September 8 criminal information
charging her with second-degree rape for assaulting a victim who was
“incapable of consenting to sexual intercourse by reason of being
physically helpless.”



In a post last month on
her Facebook page, Gilman reported, “I've got 2months sober and I'm 31
weeks pregnant.” Gilman, the mother of two young children, has struggled
with substance abuse for the past several years, according to other
Facebook messages.
