MCDONOUGH, Ga. — Law enforcement officials are offering a $7,500 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of a man wanted in a sexual assault and break-in attempts at a senior living complex.

The McDonough Police Department said a man broke in to a home at the Heritage at McDonough senior living complex on Feb. 5, where he sexually assaulted an elderly woman.

“After the sexual assault, the suspect casually walked out of the apartment,” officers said in a news release.



Police said the man also was caught on surveillance video attempting to break into other homes.

Family members who contacted Channel 2 about the case said the victim is 75 years old and that she was raped. They are concerned because the man has not been caught.

“We are hoping for any help we can get so that she can have some peace of mind,” the victim’s great-niece told Channel 2. “We just pray for piece of mind for her. She has already been through so much.”

The suspect was wearing a Nike fanny pack style bag.

9/17/2021

MCDONOUGH, Ga. - A McDonough man has been sentenced to 25 years in prison and probation after pleading guilty to raping a 76-year-old woman at a Henry County senior living facility.


Travale Farris, 29, pleaded guilty on Thursday to rape, aggravated sexual battery, kidnapping, false imprisonment, burglary, exploitation, intimidation of an elder person, and three counts of criminal attempt to commit a felony.





Officials say the charges stem from Feb. 5, when Farris was seen on a Ring doorbell camera trying to open apartment doors at the Heritage at McDonough Senior Living Center. He was able to get into one of the apartments and raped the 76-year-old woman living there.


Farris was arrested in March after investigators were able to get a match on DNA left at the scene.
