I really hope the Democrats don’t release the “Ocean View Rapist”. 🤦♂️ Victim’s rights are being trampled.
🚨New: One of the most infamous criminals in modern Virginia history could soon be released from prison, even though a state investigation found the rapist should not be eligible for parole.
One of the man’s victims told me she’s terrified Gov. Abigail Spanberger's new parole board will let him out, even though he was sentenced to over two hundred years in prison.
In the late 1980s, the serial rapist terrorized multiple women in Hampton Roads.
Anthony McGaha was dubbed the “Ocean View Rapist.”
McGaha was convicted of breaking into the homes of six different women and raping them.
To the shock of his surviving victims, he has a parole hearing next week and he could be released.
“It was four in the morning and I was sleeping,” one of the victims told me. “Safe and sound in my home, and I was woken up by someone on top of me with a knife to my throat.”
“And your child was in the other room?” Minock asked.
“Yes,” she replied. “A piece of me died that day. There's a piece of me I will never get back.”
“If he gets out of prison, I firmly believe, and I'm not the only one that thinks that, that he will rape again,” she said.
Former Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares sent a letter to the parole board urging them not to release McGaha.
“The record on McGaha's dangerousness and lack of remorse could not be clearer,” said Miyares. “He told investigators he 'wasn't raping' his victims; he was 'making love to them,' while separately admitting he did not have their consent. At sentencing, Judge Robert W. Stewart specifically noted McGaha's utter lack of remorse and his belief that he was 'invincible.' That combination of predatory calculation, total absence of empathy, and a self-image of invincibility is precisely the profile of an offender who remains a threat to public safety today, regardless of his age or time served.”
A WJLA investigation found Spanberger’s parole board is approving significantly more parole requests than former Gov. Glenn Youngkin’s parole board
