Pulaski Grand Jury indicts couple on rape and sex abuse charges By Daniel Kemp, Deputy Communications Director News from KY Attorney General Jack Conway's office Attorney General Jack Conway today announced that a Pulaski County grand jury has indicted a husband and wife on rape and sex abuse charges. On September 4, 2014, the grand jury indicted 68-year-old Robert Morris on one count of first-degree rape and one count of first-degree sexual abuse. Additionally, 61-year-old Brenda Morris was indicted on one count of complicity to first-degree rape and one count of complicity to first-degree sexual abuse. The couple was arrested Wednesday afternoon and lodged in the Pulaski County Detention Center. According to the indictments, on or about July 2009, Robert Morris allegedly engaged in sexual contact with a child under 12 years of age, and Brenda Morris allegedly committed the offense of complicity to rape by aiding, counseling, or attempting to aid her husband in the act. Robert Morris was previously indicted by a Breathitt County grand jury in September 2013 on six counts of first-degree sexual abuse. The alleged crimes occurred between 2008 and 2013 and involved two child victims. The cases in Pulaski and Breathitt counties were investigated by Kentucky State Police and are being prosecuted by Attorney General Conway's Office of Special Prosecutions. First-degree rape and complicity to first-degree rape are class A felonies and carry a penalty of 20 to 50 years or life in prison. First-degree sexual abuse and complicity to first-degree sexual abuse are class C felonies and carry a penalty of five to 10 years in prison. Robert and Brenda Morris are each being held on a $150,000 bond in the Pulaski County Detention Center. A charge is merely an accusation and a defendant is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty. This story was posted on 2014-09-12 02:29:11
