Christmas Eve 1989, At a medical center at a mall 20 miles from Boston, a man walks in and speaks to the receptionist. During the conversation, his beeper goes off and asks to use the phone. The receptionist tells him where the phone is and he goes and uses it. When he returns, he holds a gun to the back of the receptionist.

He then takes the receptionist and the 2 other doctors that were there into a room and asks one of the 2 female nurses to tie the male nurses hands up. He then tells the nurse to tie the female nurses hands up. He then directs the male and female nurses out of the room, leaving the tied up female nurse alone in the dark.

After the man demanded $1600 from the cash box, he took the female nurse into an examining room, the man told the nurse to take off her clothes and then brutally raped the woman.

Three days later, the man raped 2 more women, one of them was only 18.

On December 27, 1989, The man walked into a clothing boutique. The man said that he was looking for something for his girlfriend and asked the lady behind the counter to also attend. As the attendant (Tracy, the girl at the counter) was picking a dress out, the man pointed a gun to her back. He called Julie (the other attendant) over and told them to move to the back of the store. He took them into the office where he asked Tracy to fill a bag with money. He then told Julie to lie face down on the floor. He then told Tracy to take her clothes off and go into the bathroom. The man forced Julie to lock the shop then took her into the dressing rooms and told her to take off her clothes. He then told Julie to go into the office. He raped both women and left at around 10:30am. No witnesses saw him leave.

Soon the man was connected to 9 robberies around the Boston area. 5 Women were raped during those robberies.

The man was in his mid 30's (early to mid 50's now) and weighed around 200 pounds, and average looking, so he could blend into a crowd. His hair was described as reddish brown and sometimes black, so he could have dyed his hair, and he sometimes wore glasses and had a moustache.

Any updates on this story?

I actually think the sketch of the guy looks like the guy in the movie Shawshank Redemption that gets killed by the guards near the start because he won't shut up and wont stop calling for his mum, you know? that little round guy? The one that keeps shouting "I'm not supposed to be here!!", that guy.

I thought the Boston Rapist was eventually caught? I might have him confused with someone else though. Speaking of rapists in Mass, I am wondering whether or not Alfred Gaynor was the man who murdered Lisa Ziegert in Agawam, Massachusetts in 1992? Gaynor was a serial killer who killed several women in nearby Springfield in the mid to late 1990's. I believe he killed at least 4 women and he is currently serving multiple life sentences in prison. I was wondering if he ever was looked at as a suspect?

Well, if he was caught, Unsolved Mysteries never gave an update on it.

Hmm, yes I might have him confused with someone else. I thought he was caught for some reason but yes if UM didnt give an update on him than I most likely have him confused with a different person that was caught.
