Man accused of repeated child rape

NASSAU- A man is behind bars on charges that he repeatedly sexually assaulted a friend’s daughter when she was 11 and 12.

The mother found out about the assaults when she allegedly caught the 41-year-old in bed with her child on November 8.

Prosecutors allege Damien Brown, of Martin’s Close, began assaulting the girl on December 31, 2020.

He allegedly raped the child every month since that date.

Brown did not have a lawyer when he appeared before Senior Magistrate Carolyn Vogt-Evans today.

He faced 12 counts of unlawful sexual intercourse. However, he was not required to enter pleas.

Brown, a barber, returns to court on February 28, 2022.
