Thanks to a “Washington\u2019s Most Wanted”<\/a> viewer tip, convicted rapist Darren Nelson is once again behind bars. He was captured this past Friday by Kent Police and was taken into custody without incident.<\/p>\n

Nelson was featured on “Washington\u2019s Most Wanted” Oct. 15 and 16. He was convicted of first-degree and second-degree assault for a 1994 stranger rape in downtown Seattle.<\/p>\n

According to court records, Nelson repeatedly hit the victim with his fist, a broken bottle and a rock, then raped the victim.<\/p>\n

Nelson served 15 years but did not participate in any sex offender treatment while incarcerated. Nelson also had a conviction for possession of stolen property in the state of Louisiana where he was extradited upon release for his 1994 rape conviction.<\/p>\n

He was released from the Louisiana prison on July 20, 2009 and put on a bus back to Seattle where he arrived on July 23, 2009. He was given specific reporting instructions and failed to register.<\/p>\n
