(Stillwater, Okla.) – A Guymon man who was originally accused of raping his cellmate in the Cimarron Correctional Facility in Cushing has accepted a plea bargain for a two-year prison term on a reduced charge of aggravated assault and battery, court records showed today.
Raul A. Salcedo, 24, pleaded guilty to the amended charge for which he was given a two-year prison term followed by three years of probation, with credit for time served, on April 10, court records show.
Salcedo had been convicted in 2012 of drunk driving and concealing stolen property in Texas County for which he was incarcerated until March 2014 when he began serving the probationary part of his sentences, court records show.
While Salcedo was being held in the private prison in Cushing in September 2013, he was accused of anally raping his cellmate in an incident investigated by Oklahoma Department of Corrections Internal Affairs Agent Randy Knight, court records show.
Salcedo admitted to performing a sexual act with his cellmate, but claimed that it was consensual, Knight alleged in an affidavit.
