UPDATE on the carjacking and sexual assault we posted on Friday:
Carl Stanley Williams, DOB: 01/17/1985
CHARGED with 1st degree sexual assault, kidnapping and robbery in the case.
.
2/
Charges say Williams, in a ski mask, kidnapped the woman at gunpoint while she was getting gas a E Franklin and 3rd Ave S. He drove her car around for 10 minutes, then pulled over at 24th and Pleasant Ave S and forced the woman at gunpoint to perform oral sexual acts on him.
3/
The woman pulled her own stun gun but it didn't work [Note: they often don't, please don't rely on one].

The woman was able to escape and ran for help where a resident helped her.
4/
As we originally reported, Williams was apprehended later in the day at the same gas station after someone else reported him lurking at the pumps.
5/
Williams had just been arrested two weeks before the kidnapping and sexual assault on a charge of motor vehicle theft.

He was released without being charged.

We call on @HennepinAtty Mike Freeman to explain why he wasn't charged.
.
6/
Williams has several open criminal cases including 1st degree burglary (occupied dwelling), tamper with a motor vehicle& indecent exposure.

He's repeatedly been released on low or zero bail required.

1st degree burglary is a violent crime. Williams was released on zero bail.

Williams has at least 36 prior convictions that include four felonies:
--Terroristic threats
--2nd degree assault with a dangerous weapon
--Theft
--Narcotics
Also numerous driving after revocation.

We're told that on Williams' prior stays at Hennepin County Jail, he inappropriately touched female staff members or exposed himself.

As you may know, @CrimeWatchMpls is a volunteer effort. All of the research and reporting we've provided for over 11 years has been done for free as a public service -- because we believe people deserve information that's sorely lacking from authorities & mainstream #MNmedia.
2/
No entity or agency pays us to do this. And while it's our passion to provide all of this information for free, it's not free to produce. There are real costs involved and absorbed by us (equipment, scanners, software, electronic storage and costs for obtaining public data).
3/
In the past we've been able to obtain occasional criminal complaints from various counties or agencies for our reporting (when often a courthouse visit would be required).

As volunteers, we don't have "staff" or resources to be running to the courthouse for documents.
