HAMILTON - A man who fled the country after being accused of impersonating a police officer to kidnap and rape three women has been found guilty on all charges. Authorities said Brian Stepp, 33, was accused in 2004, then fled to Canada, then the Netherlands. He was finally arrested in October 2005 in Cambridge, England, then fought extradition until he was returned in July 2006.
Stepp was charged with three counts each of rape, kidnapping and impersonating a police officer, and one count of sexual battery. The impersonating charges were dropped to help in the extradition process.
On Thursday, after a three-day trial, Stepp was found guilty.
