Caller ID Helps Police Nab Rapist

By Newsradio 88 Staff

It was caller I-D that fingered an alleged rapist in Brooklyn.

Police say Bobby Lee Queenie abducted a woman at knifepoint in East New York Saturday afternoon, and then raped her repeatedly for two days.

Before letting her go, Queenie called the victim's relative to verify her identity, then told her, "Now I know who you are. If you call the police, I'll kill you."

But the relative had Caller ID, traced the phone call, and called police. They arrested Queenie at his office temp job for the city.
