Smyrna Man Charged In Rape of a Juvenile

Smyrna - The Delaware State Police have charged Adrian B. Rigby, 30 of Smyrna, in connection with a rape involving an 11 year old female that occurred at a Smyrna residence late Sunday night.

The investigation revealed that the 11 year old female victim was in her bed at her residence Sunday November 16, 2014, after 9:00 p.m., when Adrian Rigby entered the room and began making inappropriate advances and physical contact with the juvenile victim. The victim's mother entered the room and interrupted the act being committed by her boyfriend and later contacted state police detectives who began investigating immediately. It was also determined through interviews that this had occurred on one other occasion in October.

Rigby left the residence the following morning and was located by troopers Monday night in Sussex County. He was taken into custody without incident and transported back to Troop 3 where he was charged with two counts of Rape 1st and two counts of Rape 2nd and committed to James T. Vaughn Correctional Center in lieu of $150,000.00 secured bond.

Because of the sensitivity of this case, and in consideration of the victim, only limited information will be released.
