   Police arrested a South Carolina man on Tuesday who allegedly raped a dozen   
   women and spent more than two decades on the loose.   
      
   Investigators said DNA evidence led to the arrest of 52-year-old Gregory Frye,   
   who allegedly raped 12 women throughout Spartanburg County, South Carolina,   
   which is about 90 miles north of Columbia.   
      
   The attacks occurred between 1995 and 2003 and investigators said the suspect   
   targeted one of the women twice, according to the Spartanburg Police   
   Department. The victims, described as white women between the ages of 14 and   
   51, were attacked in various    
   apartment complexes in Spartanburg County, according to police.

   Spartanburg County Sheriff Chuck Wright said Frye had been living and working   
   in the area over the years and "going about his business like nothing   
   happened." He said there could be more victims.   
      
   "I can't imagine how some of the victims must have felt knowing that it took   
   this long," Wright said at a press conference Tuesday. "Prayers have been   
   answered, I just want you to know that. There's been a lot of people praying   
   that we'd catch a break    
   and we did. And not only did we catch a break, we ran with it."   
      
   Officers said they zeroed in on the suspect last week while reviewing several   
   cold cases.   
      
   The sheriff's office and the Spartanburg City Police Department said   
   investigators tried to approach the cases from a different perspective,   
   focusing on new technologies and forensic evidence.

   The Spartanburg Police Department released a detailed timeline of events in   
   the case against suspected serial rapist Gregory Howard on Wednesday, April 3,   
   2019.   
   Spartanburg Police Department via Facebook   
   "Investigators from both agencies worked tirelessly reviewing all of the old   
   cases, re-interviewing victims, identifying potential family members of   
   possible suspects, collecting new DNA samples, and sending that evidence to   
   the State Law Enforcement    
   Division (SLED) for analysis," the department said in a statement. "We   
   received notification from SLED last week that through their analysis, a   
   suspect with a matching DNA profile had been identified."   
      
   Frye was arrested on Tuesday on charges of burglary, kidnapping and criminal   
   sexual conduct. Police said additional charges are pending.   
      
   The suspect was being held at the Spartanburg County Detention Center without   
   bail as of late Wednesday. It's unclear if he has obtained an attorney.   
      
   "This is just a great day to know we got at least one person that is going to   
   be held accountable for a reign of terror that he's caused for these victims,"   
   Sheriff Chuck Wright said. "These victims are stronger than that and they are   
   really    
   inspirational."
