Oregon Man Convicted of Double Kidnapping and Sexual Assault

Negasi Zuberi, an Oregon man, has been found guilty on all counts related to the kidnapping and sexual assault of two women. The jury heard testimonies from multiple victims, including one who described being held in a cinder block cell for hours. The trial presented significant evidence, and despite Zuberi initially missing the chance to testify, he later sought to take the witness stand, which the judge denied. Family members, including his mother and former partner, showed their support at the federal courthouse. Following the verdict, local women shared their struggles regarding reporting assaults, shedding light on the challenges victims face in such cases.
