Duo charged after women and teen were kidnapped, with two raped in Pennsylvania



Two men are under arrest after allegedly forcing four females into a vehicle, imprisoning them in shipping containers and raping two of them in Pennsylvania.

Pennsylvania State Police arrested Davaun Carlon Jackson, 29, and Isaiah Rogers-Keeney, 19, after they drove to a Walmart with two of the victims.

It all started with a shooting that the four females witnessed in Wilkes Barre on Monday, Pennsylvania State Police told WFMZ-TV. To keep them quiet, Jackson and Rogers-Keeney allegedly snatched them and drove them to property Jackson owned in Smithfield Township. There, they tied three of them up and locked them in the shipping container, raping two of them, authorities said. They were also threatened with death and dismemberment, WNEP-TV reported, being meanced with numerous weapons.

“There was a car chase, there were kidnappings, transportation to places of isolation, threats of murder, of mayhem and sexual assaults,” Monroe County District Attorney Michael Mancuso told WFMZ. “There was one minor there. The minor was 17 years old. The other ones were, the age range was I believe 18 to 21.”

On Tuesday, the men took them to another property of Jackson’s, where one of them was given her phone back, WFMZ reported. She was able to call her mother, who alerted police.

Jackson and Rogers-Keeney were arraigned Wednesday morning and denied bail, WNEP reported.

Jackson is charged with kidnapping, rape, sexual assault, terroristic threats, tampering with evidence, strangulation, false imprisonment and robbery, plus other charges, according to the Pocono Record. Rogers-Keeney faces similar charges as an accomplice.
