Boston Man Charged in Rape Cases Pretended to Be Uber Driver, Authorities Say


Authorities investigating a series of sexual assaults say a man pretended to be a rideshare driver to pick up victims.

William Mancortes, 43, of Boston, is charged with two rapes and a sexual assault. The attacks date back to 2017. Investigators say they arrested Mancortes after matching his DNA to the sexual assault kits taken from the victims.

An assault in May of 2017 began with a young woman leaving the Bell in Hand restaurant late at night.

"By her own admission, [she] was very intoxicated," Nucci said. "Did not remember much, but was able to go inside a car she believed was an Uber, at which time the defendant got in the back seat."

Prosecutors say Mancortes raped that woman.
"There have been multiple sexual assaults with similar MO's around the city of someone impersonating an Uber driver and preying on young women who appear to be under the influence of alcohol," Nucci said. "It's clear that Mr. Mancortes, through DNA matches, has done this on more than one occasion."

"These allegations are atrocious, and the suspect was banned from the Uber platform years ago," the rideshare company told NBC10 Boston in a statement. "We take reports of this nature very seriously and cooperated with law enforcement on their investigation."

Boston Lyft Driver Found Guilty Of Raping Berklee Student Passed Out In Back Seat


NEVER get into a car driven by a nigger!
A Boston Lyft driver has been convicted for raping a female Berklee music student while she was unconscious in the back seat of his car, the Suffolk County District Attorney's office reports.

Joseph Piard picked up the student in front of her friend's apartment in the overnight hours of July 31, 2019, the office reports. When asked to be taken to her apartment on Beacon Street, Piard instead drove her to the wrong address. She then got back in Piard's car and fell asleep while he dropped off two other passengers, the office reports.
The results matched Piard's DNA, at which point he admitted to inappropriately touching the victim's body, digitally penetrating her vagina and having sex with her while she was unconscious, the office reports.

Piard was found guilty of rape but not guilty of indecent assault and battery. He will be sentenced on October 19, the office reports.
