The investigative division of the Floyd County Police Department has charged a Cave Spring man with additional acts of violence following several months of investigation. The crimes span a seven year period and include cases of rape, kidnapping and terroristic threats.

58 year old Lester Pauley was initially arrested last November 25th, following a fight that occurred within the city of Rome.

Allegations made to patrol officers at that time spurred officers to look into Pauley’s past – where police discovered allegations by women who said they were raped and held against their will.

Pauley is a truck driver with routes that may have taken him as far away as Mississippi, and Police are seeking the public’s help in locating other potential victims.

He was denied bond by Superior Court on February 23rd and has already been indicted for the previous charges for which he was being held.
