Baltimore County Police have charged a man for a second rape.
Police arrested Herman Bolling, 58, for a rape he committed in 1980. The rape happened in the 100-block of Village of Pine Court. Bolling is already awaiting trial on a 1981 rape charge.
Detectives looked at the unsolved case on Village of Pine Court again earlier this year and re-submitted the evidence.
The Baltimore County Police Department's Biology Lab contacted detectives and advised them that Herman Bolling matched the suspect DNA that was stored in the Combined DNA Index System (CODIS).
Police say Bolling raped the then 21-year-old woman on Aug. 26, 1980. The woman, who lived on Village of Pine Court, was asleep when she heard a noise. The armed suspect put a knife to the victim's throat and raped her.
Bolling was also charged in January 2009 for the rape of a then 58-year-old woman from June 3, 1981 in the 4100-block of Butler Road.
Police say the woman had returned home from walking her dog when she was approached by the suspect who asked to use her phone. As she was entering her home, the suspect forced her inside and he used the dog leash to tie her hands.
Police say the suspect, armed with a handgun, raped the woman then attempted to suffocate and strangle her while physically kicking her, breaking her ribs and causing a deep cut to her neck. The suspect fled and the woman was able to free herself and call for help. Police found the suspect also burglarized the home and took approximately $5,000 in property.
Bolling is now charged with two counts of first-degree rape, attempted first-degree murder and first-degree burglary. He is detained at the Baltimore County Detention Center on bail denied pending trial.
