Evansville man accused of raping a woman who rented a room from him

EVANSVILLE, Ind. — An Evansville man has been charged with rape after he allegedly assaulted a woman to whom he had rented a room in his condominium.

The woman told police she knew Michael Todd and had made it clear to him she did not want a sexual relationship with him, according to an affidavit of probable cause for his arrest.

One night, while the victim was intoxicated, Todd asked to make out with her, according to the affidavit. The woman told police she remembers Todd asking her to kiss him but she told him she didn't want to. 

She told police she didn't remember anything else about that night and woke up without clothes and with bruising and pain, according to the affidavit. When the victim confronted Todd, he denied having sex with her.

He has been charged with rape and is currently out on a $2,500 bond. His court case is scheduled for April 2.
