   MEMPHIS, Tenn. —  A couple is now recovering after police say they were   
   allegedly attacked and robbed before the girlfriend was raped at gunpoint   
   Monday night in Oakhaven.   
      
   A woman told officers it started when she was sitting in a car with her   
   boyfriend around 11:30 p.m. and there was a knock on the window. She thought   
   maybe it was a security guard because they were in a school park after   
   hours.   
      
   But the man, now identified as 41-year-old Corry Rayford, wasn’t a security   
   guard.   
      
   The woman says he told them, “Give me what you got.” So the couple handed   
   over $600. But that wasn’t enough for Rayford.   
      
   She says he became angry and pulled a gun on them, forcing the boyfriend out   
   of the car, and telling him to get on his knees and face the opposite   
   direction.   
      
   The woman says Rayford then raped her at gunpoint.   
      
   The couple claims Rayford then told them if they followed him out of the   
   park he would kill both of them.   
      
   The next day, the woman spotted Rayford in the neighborhood while driving so   
   she followed him and called the police who were able to make an arrest.   
      
   Rayford has been arrested multiple times in the past but his latest charges   
   appear to be the most violent.   
      
   In 2006, records show he resisted arrest and struggled with officers,   
   forcing them to use a chemical agent on him. In that case, he was also found   
   to be in unlawful possession of a gun.   
      
   WREG talked to multiple people in the neighborhood who said sadly they’re   
   not shocked by the latest vicious attack. They’re calling for more city-   
   provided lighting and cameras in the area.   
      
   As for Rayford, he’s charged with aggravated rape, two counts of aggravated   
   robbery, and two counts of especially aggravated kidnapping. He is in jail   
   on a $200,000 bond and is scheduled to appear in court on Thursday morning.
