$100,000 bond set in connection to kidnapping an 11-year-old at knifepoint in Greenspoint
Houston Police Department narcotics officers served a warrant at a house on the 8900 block of Lockwood Drive on Thursday, Jan. 13, 2022, in Houston.More than nine months after an 11-year-old reported a man held her at knifepoint after snatching her from a Greenspoint sidewalk, the man accused has been charged and held in the Harris County Jail.
Donald Ray Farley, 41, was arrested Thursday, after Crime Stoppers of Houston offered a $5,000 reward for information and police confirmed they were seeking him. Farley was arraigned Friday in Houston. He remains jailed, after a judge set his bond at $100,000. Prosecutors said Farley, who is listed as having no permanent address, grabbed the girl on Feb. 15 as she walked from a bus stop near Northborough and Rushcreek. He then allegedly walked her to an apartment where he held a knife to her neck and sexually assaulted her. The girl was able to get away and run home, where she reported the kidnapping to her mother.
Court records did not indicate why Farley was able to elude authorities for months, though he was in and out of jail on various charges, including terroristic threatening, criminal mischief and trespassing. Most of the cases were dismissed when Farley either pled guilt to other charges or the cases were dismissed for lack of probable cause.
