Police in Maryland, Virginia, Connecticut and Rhode Island are hunting for one man they have linked — via DNA and other evidence — to a string of rapes and attacks that appears to have begun in Forestville, Md., in 1997. The rapist assaulted three teenagers in Prince William County on Halloween, intensifying the search for a man police call a “bold, fearless predator.” Here, following interviews with law enforcement officials, victims and experts, as well as visits to each of the rapist’s 17 known and suspected crime scenes, The Post presents a comprehensive look at his attacks and methods.
