Prosecutor Kym Worthy has charged Michael Shawn Holcomb, 52, of Ecorse, in connection with the sexual assaults of a 78-year-old woman and an 85-year-old woman, both of Dearborn.
On March 17, 2024, at approximately 1:30 p.m., Dearborn police officers were dispatched to a residence in the 6th block of Carlysle Court for a reported home invasion and sexual assault. Upon their arrival, officers located both victims inside of the home suffering from multiple injuries.
Medics arrived on the scene and transported the victims to a local hospital for treatment.
It is alleged that Defendant Holcomb physically and sexually assaulted the victims before fleeing the scene. Investigation by the Dearborn Police Department led to the arrest of the defendant later the same day. More specific facts and evidence will be introduced at the preliminary examination in the case.
Michael Shawn Holcomb has been charged with five counts of First-Degree Criminal Sexual Conduct, two counts of Torture, one count of Second-Degree Criminal Sexual Conduct, and two counts of Assault with Intent to do Great Bodily Harm.
