Louisiana Man Accused of Drugging & Sexually Assaulting Women

BATON ROUGE, La. (KPEL News) - A homeless man who was living out of a hearse in New Orleans has been accused of drugging and assaulting multiple women, and is now jailed in Baton Rouge.

Police say that the suspect, 26-year-old Max Alexander Dobbs, even went so far as to record and photograph the violent attacks on his cell phone.

Authorities are asking for other possible victims to come forward.

Dobbs is currently in jail in East Baton Rouge Parish after a woman claims she woke up to Dobbs raping her in a hotel room in Baton Rouge last year.

According to reports, Dobbs met the woman on a dating app. She believes Dobbs slipped something into her drink as the two were having dinner together in the hotel room.

The arrest warrant shows that police found nine videos and 16 photos on Dobbs' phone in which he appears to be sexually assaulting women.

Investigators believe there could be at least three other unidentified victims.

The warrant goes into further explicit details about each of the nine disturbing videos, ranging from 42 seconds to eight minutes and 27 seconds.
