Walmart Rape Suspect Enters Guilty Plea
November 23, 2010
A Pensacola man pleaded guilty Monday in connection with a New Year’s Day rape of a young Pensacola woman abducted from a Walmart parking lot on Highway 29 in Pensacola.
Willard Ray Crowder, 48, enter a plea of guilty as charged to sexual battery with a deadly weapon or force and kidnapping.
About 10:30 on January 1, 2010, Crowder abducted an 18-year old female from the Walmart parking lot. The woman told deputies that she was having car trouble in the parking lot when the man put a knife to her throat and forced her into the back of a van. She was driven a short distance before her attacker raped her. She was driven back to Walmart and dropped off, told that she would be killed if she reported the attack to authorities.
Crowder’s DNA was obtained from the victim, according to State Attorney Bill Eddins.
Crowder faces up to life in prison when he is sentenced by Judge Nickolas Geeker on January 26, 2011.

Randy– you’ll have to be a judge to help keep him in jail–the S.O. has very little to say about who stays in jail. Even better run and be elected to the state and help pass laws to keep them in jail.
Randy….
If you intend to keep to keep thst promise….RUN…
I’ll vote for you!

The next election I should run for Sheriff…..The thugs and freaks wouldnt like me very much but the Law Abiding citizens would Love me….Pray for the young lady ,please
To Earl: DITTO
I wish this country full of bleeding heart liberals would pass some laws allowing criminals such as this to be sentenced to death immediately!
DNA proof…..admitted to the crime…..why should the taxpayers of this state/ country pay to keep this trash alive?
Public Hanging would be too good for him.
That young lady was very brave and should be very proud of herself for getting this scum off the streets. She will be in my prayers, and I hope she gets some relief knowing that he will not be able to do this to anyone else now that he is behind bars. She is a true hero in my book!
No parole, ever..because if he is released he will do it again.
Prayers still need to be raised up for this young lady. I know she lived in fear for quite some time. Her attacker had her wallet, which included her license, so he knew exactly who she was and where she lived. Please lock him up for life.
I’m sorry for that poor victim.
Hope he gets a very long sentence!
his DNA seqence is now on file if they have even if they didn’t identify him, just so long as they reported it
Has any other women cam forward to say they also have been attacked?
Hard to believe this was his first and only offence…Just saying !
