ROGERS — A Rogers man was being held Thursday in the Benton County Jail in connection with the rape of a 13-year-old girl, according to police documents.
Armando Ray Trillo, 36, was arrested Wednesday and bond was set at $30,000,
The girl’s mother reported the incident to Rogers police Tuesday, according to a probable-cause affidavit from the Benton County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office.
Detective Keith Eoff of the Rogers Police Department’s Criminal Investigation Division, took the girl to the Children’s Advocacy Center for a forensic examination.
The girl told investigators Trillo touched her “downstairs,” according to the affidavit, and touched her “private spot.”
The affidavit states the girl identified the area Trillo is accused of touching on an anatomical drawing.
She also told investigators Trillo unlocked the door and entered while she was in the bathroom, according to the affidavit.
The girl told investigators the incidents had occurred since she was 10 years old, according to the affidavit. She also said she would start crying and that would get Trillo to stop.
Trillo denied the allegations.
