Inside Edition reports on a woman who is scared because the man who raped her when she was just a teenager is being released from prison.
Tiffany Edens was attacked by a man known as the “Jogger Rapist” because he would jog through neighborhoods looking for his victims. The man’s name is Richard Gilmore, and even though he has admitted to assaulting nine women, he was released on parole from an Oregon prison after serving 36 years.
With Gilmore out of prison, Edens has made it her mission to warn people about this man and his heinous acts.
The news outlet shows footage of Edens posting and handing out flyers that say “Be Aware” with Gilmore’s mugshot and details on the posters. She has full intentions of making the people in the neighborhood aware that a serial rapist was recently been released from prison and has moved into their community.
“He is in this area and he will be in this area,” Edens explains. She’s posted them on windows and street poles and talked to women around the Portland, Oregon, area. She’s even made T-shirts with his image and other pertinent information on them.
Gilmore was convicted of raping Edens in 1986 when she was just 13 years old. He broke into her home and attacked her.
“I was the 13-year-old girl that he raped,” Edens tells a woman on the street. She goes on to explain how there were several other teenage victims whom Gilmore assaulted.
To hear from another one of Gilmore’s victims and to see how Edens has come to form a bond with the other women her attacker assaulted, watch the full video from Inside Edition.
