Centre Co., PA (WJAC) — Nearly 30 years after police say a woman was raped in State College, and was left for dead, a trial date has now been set and DNA evidence is at the heart of the prosecution's case.
In October of 2021, Scott Williams, of Mifflin County, was arrested and charged with rape, aggravated assault, burglary and five other criminal counts.
The charges are related to what police say happened along a stretch of Pugh Street, in the borough of State College, in May of 1995.
