Man Faces Sexual Assault Charge in Stamford

A Stamford man is facing a sexual assault charge after a man produced a video that showed he was assaulted while incapacitated, according to Stamford Police.

The 20-year-old victim went to police on Oct. 7 and reported the suspect “performed sexual acts upon him while he was incapacitated and did not consent to those acts. The victim turned over video evidence to investigators and gave a sworn statement,” according to police.

The victim told police that Emil Mrkulic, 25, “videotaped the act and sent it to a mutual friend who in turn notified the victim of what had occurred. With that evidence investigators applied for a warrant and arrested Mrkulic” on Nov. 24.

Mrkulic was charged with second-degree sexual assault.

Mrkulic already was in the custody of the state Corrections Department because of three other arrests in Stamford and Wilton. He was arrested by Stamford Police on Sept. 16 on six counts of impersonating a police officer, according to the Connecticut Judicial Branch website.

On Oct. 9, Stamford Police arrested him on two counts of second-degree assault and second-degree reckless endangerment in connection with putting Valium in his mother’s coffee, according to The Advocate.

On Oct. 15, Wilton Police arrested him on a third-degree burglary sixth-degree larceny charges in connection with an Aug. 28 incident in that town.

Mrkulic is scheduled to return to state Superior Court on Dec. 23 for the Stamford cases.
