Convicted Local Rapist Back In Jail

A Columbus man who went to prison for sexually assaulting prostitutes is back behind bars.  Columbus police say Edwin Zimmerman was freed in June, but picked up a prostitute on New Year's Eve and drove to a secluded area and tried to rape her.  They say the woman escaped and gave Zimmerman's license plate number to police.  Zimmerman is charged with abduction.

Jim has been with WCBE since 1996. Before that he worked as a reporter at another Columbus radio station, and for three newspapers in Southwest Florida.
