“Victor Jenkins targeted vulnerable women who he thought would not report his brutal attacks, even explicitly telling one that law enforcement would not believe her. Not only did our prosecutors believe these women, so did a jury of 12 New Yorkers,” said District Attorney Bragg. “Now, he will serve a significant prison sentence for these horrific crimes. I thank the survivors for their immense courage in cooperating with law enforcement and, moreover, taking the stand to testify. I hope this conviction sends the message that we are here to help all survivors, no matter the circumstances.”
