A teenager is facing years in jail for raping six women 22 times after meeting some of the victims on social media.<\/p>\n
Kevarnie Queen, now 19, ‘treated the women as objects to use for his own gratification’ and attacked them in dank communal stairwells, Inner London\u00a0Crown Court heard.<\/p>\n
Jurors heard how Queen had met all but one of the six victims on social media, where he’d use his street name of ‘K1’ as his username.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The offences began when he was 15 in May 2019 and went on to to June 2022 when he was 18.<\/p>\n
Before May 2022, police had received several allegations of sexual offences against Queen, but in each case the victims were not willing to prosecute.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Kevarnie Queen, 19, will appear before Inner London Crown Court on October 13, where he faces a maximum of life imprisonment\u00a0<\/p>\n

But on June 7, 2022 one victim plucked up the courage to make a statement against him and agreed to give evidence.<\/p>\n
Five others then agreed to support the investigation, supported by specialist officers.<\/p>\n
Some of the victims had been in a relationship with Queen and believed sexual abuse they suffered was was a normal part of being his girlfriend.<\/p>\n
It is believed he may have many more victims who have not come forward.<\/p>\n
Queen claimed he had cheated on all of the victims and as a result they had got together to teach him a lesson.<\/p>\n
Detective Constable Jennie Seward said: ‘Queen’s disregard for the young women’s rights to consent, and his complete lack of respect for them, is disgraceful. He<\/p>\n
treated the women as objects to use for his own gratification.<\/p>\n
Detective Inspector Ian Kenward added: ‘I am pleased with the conviction and would like to pay tribute to the tremendous courage shown by the young women targeted by Queen.<\/p>\n
‘Their support has led to a dangerous predatory offender being taken off the streets and I am immensely grateful.’<\/p>\n
Queen will be sentenced on October 13.<\/p>\n
