Man arrested for raping 6 months pregnant teen at knife point... after DNA links him to crime 14 YEARS later

A woman in Fitchburg, Massachusetts, waited 14 years for justice after she was brutally raped and beaten at knife point while she was six months pregnant. She was just 17 at the time. Prosecutors on Wednesday announced they have solved the case -- arresting a convicted rapist after linking him to the 1998 crime with DNA evidence. The woman, now 31, also remembered several tattoos on Kenneth J Casey, which helped further tie him to the attack, authorities say. Casey, 52, is accused of attacking the heavily pregnant teen at her home on the morning of July 14, 1998, the Fitchburg Sentinel and Enterprise reports. Prosecutors say he knew the teen was pregnant at the time. The victim said Casey held a knife to her throat as he raped her. He also beat her during the attack, she told police.
