Reality star charged with raping 16-year-old girl and sexually assaulting two more teenagers
A Texas hotel developer and reality TV star has been charged with three sexual assaults in two states.
Bill Hutchinson, 63, is accused of raping a 16-year-old girl in California, sexually assaulting a different 16-year-old girl in California and sexually assaulting a 17-year-old girl at his home in the Dallas suburb of Highland Park.
Hutchinson was arrested earlier this week in Texas but quickly released on $30,000 bond, the Dallas Morning News reported.
He’s now also wanted in Orange County, Calif., the county’s district attorney said Friday in a press release. A 16-year-old girl said Hutchinson took her to his vacation home in Laguna Beach in April and raped her while she was unconscious. He’s also charged with four counts of sexual battery against the alleged victim.
The second 16-year-old girl said Hutchinson took her to Laguna Beach, about 40 miles south of Los Angeles, in May, the Orange County District Attorney’s Office said. He’s charged with one count of sexual battery from that trip.
Prior to the announcement of the California charges, Hutchinson denied the Texas allegations and said, “Anyone who knows me in this city knows that I am not capable of assault, sexual or otherwise,” according to the Morning News.
The 17-year-old Texas girl said Hutchinson gave her alcohol and marijuana and that she fell asleep on his couch in Highland Park, the Morning News reported. She said that she woke up to find him sexually assaulting her.
The alleged victim also said Hutchinson gave alcohol and marijuana to other teenage girls.
Hutchinson stars on the Lifetime show “Marrying Millions,” which chronicles his engagement to a 23-year-old woman, Brianna Ramirez.
