The suspect, 53-year-old Raymond Turner killed himself with a firearm outside of the Police Operations Center in Colorado Springs on Tuesday afternoon.
An affidavit written by a Colorado Springs Police Department detective outlines the investigation that led to the Turner’s arrest on January 19. The document says it began when an eight-year-old told his mother he didn’t want to go to Raymond’s house.
The victim, who is now 9-years-old, told his mother that Raymond had molested him. The victim told police he was in bed with Turner and his wife, Angelia, when the crime occurred. The victim also reportedly told his mother that he never wanted to return to Raymond’s house.
According to documents, the victim told a forensic investigator that it felt “horrible.”
The affidavit also details a conversation between Turner and the first victim’s father. At one point when asked about the allegations, Raymond reportedly said, “I don’t know. I guess that could happen…”
However, he also explicitly denied the allegation at a later point in that conversation and again during an interview with police.
During the recorded phone conversation, the court papers show Turner mentioned having inappropriately touched his daughter about 30 years ago. “At that time, I was hooked on meth and drinking a lot, pretty bad stuff. I’ve spent the last 30 years trying to make up for it.”
During the interview with police, Turner denied any previous allegations of sexual assault. Asked specifically about the situation with his daughter, Raymond called it a “misunderstanding.”
The detective also wrote in the affidavit that 3 more victims were identified during the course of the investigation. Those include a two females and a male, all less than 9 years of age.
Each reportedly described in very similar terms the ways in which Turner allegedly touched their private parts. According to the documents, each told investigators the assaults occurred at night in Turner’s home.
Turner is charged with four counts of sexual assault on a child by someone in a position of trust.
According to the Colorado Courts database, Turner is out on $25,000 bond.
