His victims told law enforcement that he used his success in the industry as well as his Yale University alumna status to get dates, and in recent years, was utilizing dating apps.
"We heard the same story again and again," said Detective Brent Hopkins, a special assault section supervisor. "Mr. Olds started off charming, but then used brutal violence to carry out these rapes. Some of these survivors suffered in silence for years before finding the strength to speak up. Now that he’s off the streets, we want to make sure everyone has a chance to be heard."
