Reinhard tsunaga is the most prolific convicted rapist in UK criminal history with him estimated to have raped and sexually assaulted at least 200 men between 2015 and 2017. sonaga would stalk the streets of Manchester UK looking for victims who would launch his property and then assault them with him filming his sickening crimes welcome to evil Among Us [Music] reynaldtonago was born on the 19th of February 1983 in John B on the island of Sumatra Indonesia he was from a privileged upbringing with his father being involved in banking the family were wealthy and synagogue grew up not wanting for anything synagogue was raised Catholic and appears to have hidden the fact that he was gay from his parents who wants him to marry a woman and settle down and start a family after completing a degree in architecture at the University of Indonesia in 2006. sonaga moved to the UK in 2007 to begin to study for a master's degree in planning at the University of Manchester which completed in 2009 followed by him studying for a master of arts in sociology which he achieved in 2011.
he then remained living in Manchester and in 2012 he began to study for his doctorate degree in human geography with him working on his thesis at the time of his arrest in 2017. during his time in the UK sonago lived openly as a gay man and was sexually promiscuous he would however change completely when his parents came to visit or when he would return home to Indonesia with them apparently having no idea of his sexual orientation until his trial sonaga's base for his attacks was a flat in Prince's Street Manchester right in the Heart of the City and at the center of the nightlife his road was somewhere that people staggering home from a night out would pass by people who met sanaga saw an unassuming five foot seven perspectacled Thin Man his social media presence showed the face he wished to portray to others there were people who identified issues with him which we'll return to later but everyone who knew him was shocked by the monster he truly was this should only be revealed in 2017 when his Rampage was finally brought to an end by the police in order to outline the horror in this case it's necessary to start at the end and see how the offenses of synagogue came to light which began with one phone call to the police on the 2nd of June 2017. on this date the police received a phone call from a 21 year old rugby player who stated that sanaga had tried to rape him this man said that he'd been on his way home from a night out went to Naga had ushered him into his property innocent toxicated State the man agreed sonaga then tried to drug this man and was trying to rape him when he woke up and he managed to fight him off sonaga was no match for a rugby player and to put it mildly he had the [ __ ] kicked out of him the police attended and found sanaga barely conscious on the floor and initially they arrested the rugby player for causing Grievous bodily harm but they were suspicious of sonaga and accompanied him to the hospital where he was chained to the bed They seized his mobile phone from the property and demanded the pin number from him sonaga initially gave the wrong PIN number but eventually gave the right one and the police officers were confronted with the video of sonaga attacking the rugby player which showed unfortunately this individual had already been raped before he came to sanaga was arrested in the hospital bed for a single count of rape but this was just the tip of the iceberg please return to synagogue's property and recovered dozens of phones driving licenses student IDs wallets watches and Facebook screen grabs of men all of these men were those that sanaga had raped and these were his trophies of his crimes the true horror though was found on the phone the police had taken initially and on this phone was hundreds of hours of synagogue raping and sexually assaulting men sinaga only raped almost all of his victims I would ejaculate both inside them and on their bodies he used a condom during only one of his attacks and by some miracle is not known to have infected any of his victims this is based on the fact that he tested negative for all sexually transmitted diseases upon his arrest this of course doesn't discount that he previously had an STD and then got it treated he would also kiss his victims bodies and on their mouths most of his victims were raped repeatedly over a number of hours I feel sorry for the police officers who had to watch each and every one of these sickening videos CCTV analysis and inquiries show sanaga's modus operandi with him leaving his property late at night and touring the local streets looking for loan intoxicated men who he then manipulated into coming back to his flat this was by a number of ways including giving them a safe space to sleep off their intoxication ordering a taxi or inviting them back to his flat for more drinks unfortunately when we're drunk we make bad decisions and in this state it may have seemed like a good idea to go with this unassuming physically slight man for whatever reasons this CCTV footage shows sonaga going on the prowl for a victim when they got into the flat sonaga would offer them a drink spiked with the drug gamma hydroxybutyric acid more commonly known as GHB GHB is a drug actually used to treat Sleep disorders and anxiety and it acts by relaxing the nervous system however in large enough doses it can cause unconsciousness confusion and memory loss when the member unconscious sonaga would rape them filming his sickening crimes clearly for his own sexual gratification at a later date police inquiries established that the first attack they could prove was on New Year's Day 2015 when a man was out for a night out and the next thing he remembered was coming to covered in vomit in synagogue's flat with no idea how he got there sonography and concern and gave some story about this victim being too drunk to get home and he gave him a place to stay the victim actually apologized to sonaga and went on his way not knowing until two years later that he had been raped sennargo's thoughts were proud the streets most nights and committed several rapes per month the police had the heartbreaking task of informing the victims of his offenses using synagogue's trophies and the contents of the videos they were able to identify 48 victims who they had to contact individually and inform them that they had been raped almost all of them had no idea that anything had happened to them and the bottom of their world must have dropped out however at least 60 victims could not be identified forensic analysis and detailed police work led to sonaga being suspected of raping at least 206 men between January 2015 and his arrest in 2017.
let that number sink in at least 206 men raped by this man in a two and a half year period sonaga's method did not change and he simply gave some sort of excuse when these people woke up to explain their presence in his flat with him knowing full well they couldn't actually remember the true horror of their experience some people may be questioning why no one reported his behavior to the police or suspected they had been raped the unfortunate truth is that I believe that some of them probably did suspect they'd been raped but there's such a stigma about male sexual assault that they probably felt so ashamed so violated and so dirty that they didn't want to admit to themselves or others what had happened however as will be Illustrated later a lot of his victims showed extraordinary bravery later on in court despite the overwhelming evidence against him sonaga pleaded not guilty to all charges and there were four trials between the 1st of June 2018 and the 10th of July 2018 for crimes against 13 victims between the 1st of April 2019 and the 7th of May 2019 for crimes against 12 victims between the 16th of September 2019 and the 4th of October 2019 related to 10 victims and finally in December 2019 for offenses related to a further 13 victims the callousness of synagogue was fully on display through each and every one of these hearings he forced his victims to have to relive their ordeals and the videos of the attacks were played in court snaga appeared to be enjoying the trials smirking throughout and taking great pleasure and watching the videos of his attacks The Bravery of the victims has to be noted as many of them testified in court and refused to do so behind screens with them wishing to look scenargo directly in the eyes other elements of synagogue's depravity were fully exposed including him sending friend requests to many of his victims on Facebook after the attacks and the meticulous way that he collected trophies and documented his crimes sonaga would also boast his friends about his sexual exploits subtly admitting his crimes with him saying that he would use a quote secret potion when having sex with men synagogue's defense was pathetic with him claiming that all of his victims were consensual sexual partners despite almost all of them being heterosexual and them obviously being unconscious in the videos some of the victims were heard snoring in the clips that were shown to the court to no one's surprise sonaga was found guilty in all four trials and was eventually convinced of crimes against 48 victims including 136 counts of rape 14 counts of sexual assault eight counts of attempted rape and one count of assault by penetration was sentenced at the conclusion of each trial but I want to focus on the sentence from his last trial in December 2019 which occurred on January the 6th 2020 in front of Judge Suzanne Goddard Casey she stated quote you are a man of some intelligence and cunning who has tried to counter each and every twist in the prosecution case as you gave evidence hopeless though your efforts were you showed no shame or remorse as the jury had to view hours of the most intimate footage your actions show you are a dangerous deeply Disturbed and perverted individual with no sense of reality you described yourself as having behaved tenderly to the males who fell into your clutches nothing could be further from the truth all of your actions were cold and calculated to avoid the males waking up during sex you persisted in your denials of guilt in spite of the overwhelming nature of the evidence against you and the previous jury verdicts you gave no thought to the Deep distress and Lasting psychological damage you will have caused these young men reference is also made to probation precincts report where the author wrote quote I'm unable to conclude that Mrsnaga is anything other than extremely dangerous his level of denial and the additional trials that are pending make it unlikely that the prison or probation service will make any progress with him in the foreseeable future the judge then sentenced him reynoldsunaga was sentenced to life imprisonment with a minimum tie for 30 years in prison before he's able to apply for parole this was then increased to 40 years at the court of appeal on the 11th of December 2020.
