Overview

• Bo Dukes, currently serving a 25-year prison term for concealing the death of Georgia teacher Tara Grinstead, has pleaded guilty to reduced charges in two unrelated rape cases.
• Dukes agreed to plea deals on November 13 to settle charges that he had raped women in 2017 and 2019 after threatening them with weapons.
• Prosecutors allowed Dukes to plead guilty to aggravated assault with intent to rape in both cases, and to possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.
• Dukes' sentences for these crimes will not add to his current prison term, due to a plea deal.
• Additional charges related to Grinstead's death are still pending in a neighboring county where Dukes and his friend, Ryan Duke, burned her body.
