“She made it clear she didn’t want him to come in but he entered into her apartment anyways," Capt. Robert Safford.

While the woman lives independently, police said she has intellectual disabilities. Her case worker told detectives she requires the highest level of support and her disability affects her decision making and ability to give consent.

Investigators said it was not the first time Parker Foster was accused of such a crime. He's already on probation for another assault case.

Foster is charged with rape and sexual assault of a person with a mental disability for the new case.
