A Council Bluffs man faces 25 years in prison after being accused of sexually abusing a 7-year-old girl. The Daily NonPareil reports 50-year old Manuel Corrales-Rabago was arrested Wednesday, on suspicion of sexual abuse. He was charged with two counts of second-degree sexual abuse on Thursday. Fourth Judicial District Associate Judge Charles Fagan set Corrales-Rabago’s bail at $50,000 and appointed him a public defender. The Judge also filed a no-contact order, which prohibits Corrales-Rabago from contacting the victim.
According to the arrest affidavit, on Jan. 19th, the victim was interviewed at Project Harmony and said that Corrales-Rabago performed sexual acts on her. The affidavit said Corrales-Rabago also allegedly performed sexual acts on two other minors.
Corrales-Rabago’s next court date is a preliminary hearing set for Jan. 28th. He remains in custody at Pottawattamie County Jail.
