   INKSTER, Mich. – A suspected serial rapist was arraigned Wednesday in   
   Inkster in what appears to be his last arraignment in a series of cases across   
   the metro area.   
      
   Ikeie Ranordo Smith, 32, of Redford Township, is charged with first-degree   
   home invasion and assault with intent to do great bodily harm in connection to   
   a case that occurred in Inkster.   
      
   Smith allegedly broke into a woman's home in Inkster on Aug. 23, 2011 and hit   
   the woman in the face several times before fleeing the home.   
      
   Police say it was Smith who climbed into an apartment window at the Caterbury   
   Woods Apartments and a woman woke up to Smith lying on top of her. She   
   screamed and police said Smith hit her multiple times.   
      
   Police said a cigarette butt was found on the bed and his DNA matched to it.   
      
   "This is one of several warrants that we have charged on this defendant in the   
   last two weeks," Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy said. "The allegations in   
   these cases show that this defendant was a one man crime spree who victimized   
   with impunity for a    
   long time until now."   
      
   Charges across Metro Detroit   
   Smith was charged with three counts of first-degree criminal sexual conduct   
   and one count of first-degree home invasion stemming from an assault on July 6   
   in Allen Park.   
      
   He is charged with home invasion and one count of criminal sexual conduct in   
   connection to an incident in Dearborn Heights on Dec. 9, 2013. A second   
   warrant is under review by the Wayne County Prosecutor’s Office.   
      
   Smith was  also charged in cases from Dearborn, Redford Township and Garden   
   City.   
      
   The Dearborn charges include two counts of first-degree home invasion in cases   
   from Aug. 10, 2013 and Aug. 13, 2015.   
      
   The Redford Township charges include two counts of home invasion, two counts   
   of first-degree criminal sexual conduct, two counts of second-degree criminal   
   sexual conduct and armed robbery. The charges stem from incidents in 2014 and   
   2016.   
      
   The Garden City charges include one count of first-degree home invasion, three   
   counts of first-degree criminal sexual conduct and one count of second-degree   
   criminal sexual conduct.   
      
   Smith is being held at the Wayne County Jail.   
      
   Details of case   
   Dearborn Police Chief Ronald Haddad addressed the community Monday, detailing   
   the arrest of the suspected serial rapist and the case against the man.   
      
   "I appreciate the public's support and patience while we continue this   
   investigation," Haddad said. "Investigations of this type are complicated and   
   time consuming and, while it is important to notify the public of current   
   events, it is most important    
   that we do not do anything to compromise the investigation."   
      
   The chief said a pattern was noticed in home invasions near the border between   
   Dearborn and Allen Park in July 2015. The home invasions involved some sort of   
   completed or attempted sexual assault. Neighboring jurisdictions had received   
   several more    
   incidents which appeared to be similar.   
      
   Haddad said at least three of the cases happened in Dearborn.   
      
   A multi-jurisdictional task force was created in November 2015 involving   
   police departments in Dearborn, Dearborn Heights, Allen Park, Redford   
   Township, Inkster and Garden City, as well as the Michigan State Police, FBI,   
   MDOC and the Wayne County    
   Prosecutor’s Office.   
      
   The FBI behavioral scientists labeled the suspect as a “power reassurance   
   rapist.”   
      
   “There’s no more power he holds over the people,” Haddad said. “I can   
   assure you he’ll be in jail for a long time.”   
      
   Surveillance video of a suspect in the backyard of a Livonia home helped in   
   naming a person of interest.   
      
   “This particular nightmare that has plagued our community and our region for   
   a long time is over,” Haddad said.   
      
   Authorities believe there are a minimum of 35 cases in the region they suspect   
   Smith is responsible for.   
      
   Dearborn Mayor Jack O’Reilly and Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy also   
   spoke at the news conference.   
      
   “In our region, law enforcement comes together time and time again without   
   borders,” O’Reilly said. “Crime doesn’t care about boundaries.”
