Update: Oakley Police Say DNA Led to Arrest in 20-Year-Old Rape Case

On April 2002, a sexual assault occurred near Laurel Road in Oakley that involved a juvenile female who had been out walking her dog. The juvenile was approached by a man who got out of a vehicle, pointed a gun at her, ordered her into the back seat of the vehicle and ordered her to perform several sexual acts at gun point. At some point, the juvenile escaped.

The juvenile went to a nearby house for help and the police were called. DNA was collected and analyzed as part of the investigative protocol. In 2022, a CODIS hit alerted the  Oakley Police Department to a possible DNA match from the sexual assault case in 2002.

On May 16th, 2024 at approximately 4:50 PM, the Kootenai County Sheriff’s Office, the  Coeur d’Alene Police Department and the U.S. Marshals Service (USMS) arrested Eric J. Ferguson, a 49-year-old male from Rathdrum, Idaho in the case.– see story
