On December 10, Omar Nunez-Florez was sentenced to 100 months in prison. In November, Nunez-Florez was found guilty of first-degree rape, first-degree burglary, and multiple counts of assault.
Last year, on October 11, 2020, Nunez-Florez physically assaulted a woman in her home in Hillsboro. The assault was witnessed by her minor child. She called police and he was arrested for causing an injury to her face by hitting her and interfering with her ability to call 9-1-1. The defendant was indicted for felony assault, harassment, and interfering with making a report. He was released with a No Contact Order with the victim and was awaiting trial when he committed the crimes that occurred on December 25, 2020.
Early in the morning of December 25, 2020, in violation of the No Contact Order, the defendant unlawfully entered the victim’s home through a broken window, physically assaulted her by kicking and biting her, and also raped her. The victim’s teenage son heard the commotion and his mother’s cries for help. He called police and struggled with the defendant in an attempt to keep him in the apartment until officers could arrive. However, Nunez-Flores fled the scene before officers could respond, leaving his shirt and hat behind. Law enforcement made multiple efforts to locate him, and he was ultimately arrested during a traffic stop months later.
The defendant will be transferred to the Oregon Department of Corrections to begin serving his sentence.
