With the new charges in place, Perriman now faces first-degree felonies including three counts of rape and two counts of forcible sodomy. He also faces second-degree felony charges of burglary and forcible sexual abuse. Perriman’s also been charged with a third-degree felony charge for aggravating kidnapping.

According to a probable cause statement, Perriman’s original charges came after a 17-year-old victim reported that she met Terrell Maurice Perriman, 20, on Instagram, and alleged that he pressured her to send nude photos to him, and she, in turn, received photos that were “sexually graphic in nature.”

She reportedly met up with Perriman at his apartment where he confiscated her mobile phone and refused to let her leave, arresting documents state. He then allegedly told her he wouldn’t let her leave until she performed a sexual act on him.
