   Shawn Darnell Robinson Hopkins, 37, turned himself in and is facing one count   
   of criminal sexual conduct in a 2005 rape case, the Michigan Attorney General   
   Dana Nessel announced Feb. 3, 2023. (Kalamazoo County Prosecutor's Office/WWMT)   
      
   KALAMAZOO, Mich. — A Kalamazoo man turned himself in concluding a   
   decades-long sexual assault investigation, Michigan Attorney General Dana   
   Nessel announced Friday.   
      
   Shawn Darnell Robinson Hopkins, 37, allegedly gave a 14-year-old alcohol and   
   marijuana in 2005 before sexually assaulting her, Nessel said.   
      
   The girl met Hopkins through a friend only a few hours prior to the assault,   
   and only knew him by his street name, "Chicago," according to the attorney   
   general's office.   
      
   Hopkins, who has a history of domestic violence with family members and   
   intimate partners dating back to the early 2000s, discovered he was under   
   investigation and fled to Chicago following the assault, Nessel said.   
      
   He remained hidden under more than 1/2 dozen aliases. However, he was   
   determined recently through DNA testing, Nessel said.   
      
   “The ties between sexual assault and domestic violence are pervasive and   
   well-documented. This defendant has a track record of multiple violent   
   assaults, and yet his survivors still had the courage to come forward and   
   report their experiences to law    
   enforcement,” Nessel said. “I’m grateful for the continued hard work and   
   determination of the Kalamazoo SAKI team who help cold cases like this achieve   
   justice.”   
      
   Hopkins was released Thursday on a personal recognizance bond, and will be   
   arrested and held on $100,000 bond if he fails to appear for court or violates   
   any of his bond conditions, according to Nessel.   
      
   He is expected to appear for a preliminary examination Feb. 21, 2023, at 1: 30   
   p.m., according to the attorney general's office. He is charged with one count   
   of first-degree criminal sexual conduct.   
      
   The Kalamazoo Sexual Assault Kit Initiative assisted in the investigation.
