OKLAHOMA CITY (TCD) — Police arrested a youth baseball coach after a young girl’s mother walked in on him allegedly sexually assaulting the underage victim.
Cleveland County court records show Donovan Sheppard, 39, is being charged with two counts of lewd molestation, one count of rape by instrumentation, three counts of first-degree rape where the victim is under 14 years of age, one count of exposing other to AIDS, and one count of pattern of criminal offenses.
According to court documents cited by KFOR-TV, on the night of Jan. 13, a woman who lived with Sheppard picked him up at a bar because he got into a fight with someone there.

The woman reportedly called police, and when they arrived, she was pointing a gun at Sheppard.
Sheppard reportedly told the woman he was HIV-positive.
The victim spoke with police and said Sheppard had raped her six times, including on her birthday.
