Man Convicted of Sexually Assaulting Four Men He Met at Bars
Real estate appraiser Joey Poindexter was convicted Thursday of sexually assaulting four men he met at bars and lured to his Maryland home.
Investigators said they found pictures of men in various states of consciousness on Poindexter's cellphone.
Police began investigating him more than a year ago, after a man alleged that Poindexter sexually assaulted him after meeting him at Looney's Pub in College Park, Maryland, during a beer pong tournament Oct. 3, 2013.
This week, police releasead surveillance video and a phone call connected to that encounter.
"You know, no matter what did happen or didn't happen, like I said, I was pretty trashed," Poindexter tells a victim. "And if it makes you feel any better, I don't have any [expletive] AIDS if anything did happen."
Investigators said at the time they believed Poindexter, then 38, was a sexual predator who had been victimizing young adult men for approximately 10 years. They said he frequents beer pong tournaments, attending events at various bars in the D.C. and Baltimore area.
Three men who stepped forward shortly after the first case was publicized told authorities they were attacked in Poindexter's home on Plum Creek Drive in Gaithersburg. All were drunk at the time of the assault and were possibly drugged, police add.
He would often take pictures of his victims; police found images of at least 12 other victims on Poindexter's harddrive.
Poindexter was convicted late last month of sexually assaulting one man, and was convicted Wednesday on eight counts involving the assaults of four others.
"Honestly, [we're] disgusted to know that someone of that age would try to befriend young adults and see that he would be preying on them," juror Jennifer Davis said.
Poindexter represented himself after firing his lawyers.
He will be sentenced in this case March 20. Police say if you think you may be a victim, you should contact Montgomery County Special Victims Unit as soon sa possible.
