Registered sex offender charged with raping two women at NYC hotel

A registered sex offender who did three years in state prison for sexually assaulting a 15-year-old girl is now charged with raping two different women at a Bronx hotel.

Dashawn Williams — who was released on parole two years ago — was back behind bars on $100,000 bail after he was busted Saturday in two alleged assaults at the 7 Days Hotel in Castle Hill, authorities said.

In the first incident, Williams, 28, allegedly followed the victim to her room on Sept. 17, jammed his foot in the door and forced his way in, according to a criminal complaint filed by the Bronx District Attorney’s Office.

“Give me the money!” he allegedly demanded while holding a knife, forcing the woman to give him $1,200 in cash, the court document said.

He is accused of forcing the woman to perform oral sex before raping her at knifepoint, and then grabbing her phone and wiring himself another $200 through a cash app.

Williams allegedly fled but was back at the hotel on Nov. 8, when he responded to a guest’s online ad and went to her room around 6 a.m., according to the criminal complaint against him.

He again demanded money, this time wielding a hammer and waving it over his head while the woman handed over $1,700 in cash, the complaint alleged.

“Is that everything?” he allegedly demanded. “I am going to hurt you if it’s not everything.”

Williams then wired himself another $149 from her phone through a cash app, the filing states.

“Get a condom so I can f–k you,” he allegedly yelled. “Do it or I’m going to knock you out.”

When the victim refused, prosecutors said, Williams forced her to perform oral sex and then raped her before fleeing, according to the complaint.

Police caught up with Williams on Saturday, and he is now charged with third-degree rape, criminal sex act and first-degree robbery in each of the cases. He was being held on Rikers Island and is due back in court on Thursday.

Williams was sentenced to up to 3 1/2 years on a first-degree attempted rape conviction for the case involving the teenage girl in 2015. He was released on parole in September 2020, online records show.

In addition to that case, Williams has been arrested several times in the past, including for aggravated harassment and criminal obstruction of breathing, according to law enforcement sources.
