PG County Man Sexually Assault Howard U Students: Police

A New Carrollton man has been arrested as a suspect in three sexual assaults -- two taking place in D.C. -- and he may have been involved in others, police say.

Police arrested 35-year-old Julian Everett, accusing him of sexually assaulting two students at Howard University in D.C. in 2015 and 2016, and committing a third sexual assault in 2005, according to a report from the Prince George's County Police Department.

Police are "concerned" there may be additional victims.

The first victim told investigators that in 2016 when she was 17, Everett contacted her through a Facebook group for incoming freshman.

"The suspect picked up the victim at her dorm and brought her to his barbershop on U Street in Northwest Washington, DC," the report states. "The suspect provided the victim alcohol which the victim says caused her to become ill and to lose consciousness. When she woke up, she says the suspect was sexually assaulting her at his New Carrollton home. He later took her back to her dorm."

The second victim was approached in 2015 when she was 18 and a student at Howard, police say.

"[S]he met the suspect at a party and agreed to go out with him the following evening," the report states. "The suspect picked up the victim from her dorm and also provided her alcohol. She too says she began to lose consciousness and was taken without permission to the suspect’s home in New Carrollton. The victim says she was sexually assaulted there before being driven her back to the university."

Police learned of their cases when an anonymous letter was sent to the Metropolitan Police Department earlier this month. D.C. police contact Prince George's County police, who opened an investigation, and during the course of that investigation reviewed a 2005 cases involving Everett and a 16-year-old girl, police say.

"In that case, a then 16-year-old girl says the suspect sexually assaulted her at his home," the report states. "In that instance, the victim also says she was supplied with alcohol before the sexual assault. When the suspect drove the victim back to her Virginia home, the suspect physically assaulted the victim in his car. He was charged by authorities in Virginia in connection with that assault."

Police are continuing to investigate the case, and ask anyone with information to contact them.
