Threesome Lured Man Into Woods To Force Rape Confession: Police

WENTZVILLE, MO — The Post-Dispatch reports three people have been arrested in a plot to lure a man into the woods and force him to confess to a rape. Two 17-year-olds, Nathan Bennet Meurer and Jared Adam Pinkley, were charged with first-degree robbery, kidnapping and evidence tampering. A juvenile girl is also in custody.

The girl is reportedly the girlfriend of one of the boys. After telling them she was raped, court documents show the three devised the plan to force her rapist to confess. Police say the girl arranged to meet her accused rapist in a wooded area hear Holt High School Friday. When he arrived, the two boys confronted him dressed all in black and wearing masks.

According to police, the boys bound the man with a chain and put a BB gun to his head. The man reportedly told them the sexual encounter with the girl was consensual and pleaded for his life. The three then robbed the man — taking less than $100 — and let him go.

Detectives said the three showed no remorse and did not seem to realize the seriousness of their actions. Bail for the two 17-year-old boys has been set at $50,000 cash only. Charges against the girl were not made public.
