The Sacramento Police Department has arrested 33-year-old Jonathan Carroll for sexual assault.  

In July 2013, the Sacramento Police Department received reports of alleged sexual assaults that occurred in the Sacramento region.  During the course of the investigation, detectives discovered that Carroll met a number of young women, ages 17 to 19, using an online social networking forum.

Carroll was transported to the Sacramento County Main Jail where he was booked for rape and oral copulation.
