The
New York bar bouncer awaiting trial for the February 2006 murder
of college graduate student Imette St. Guillen, has been linked
to the kidnapping and assault of another college student in 2005
by DNA evidence found in his van. Police say DNA in Darryl
Littlejohn's van matches that of the York College student who
was beaten and kidnapped in October 2005.
The victim previously identified the van and picked Littlejohn
out of a police lineup in April 2006. She told investigators
Littlejohn was posing as a police officer when he kidnapped and
assaulted her.
In March 2006, Littlejohn was arrested on a parole violation
after he was linked to the rape and murder of St. Guillen, who
was last seen at a bar where Littlejohn worked as a bouncer. DNA
evidence has linked him to that crime also.
After his arrest, the York college student came forward and
identified him as her attacker.
Littlejohn was indicted for St. Guillen's murder in March 2006.
A preliminary hearing is scheduled September 11 in that case.
