Sean Michael Hunter, 24, was picked up for two counts of rape on Sept. 28 in Medford, Oregon at around 9 p.m.

Hunter, also known as Sunshine and Sean Marley, has been charged with one count of rape in the third degree, a class C felony and one count of rape of a child in the second degree, a class A felony.

Hunter, who is homeless, has been known to visit Sunken Park in Friday Harbor and Moran State Park on Orcas Island. Bail will be set at his first hearing in San Juan County. He appeared in court in Oregon on Sept. 28 and will eventually be transferred to Friday Harbor.

On Sept. 13, a woman told a San Juan County Sheriff’s deputy that on Sept. 12 Hunter sexually assaulted her at Sunken Park in Friday Harbor. The victim initially tried to stop him, but when he became physically aggressive, she told the deputy that she was in shock and too frightened to speak.

On Sept. 15, a San Juan County Sheriff’s Office detective waited at the Friday Harbor ferry terminal because he heard that Hunter would be on the 2 p.m. sailing. The detective wanted to interview Hunter about the report of sexual assault from the woman. While waiting, the detective was approached by a woman who said her 13-year-old sister was sexually assaulted by Hunter. The suspect never appeared on the boat.

On Sept. 16, the detective met with the girl and her sister. The girl reported that on Aug. 21, she went to Hunter’s campsite near the upper Port of Friday Harbor parking lot behind a yellow trailer.

The victim told the detective that Hunter gave her alcohol and marijuana. After drinking three beers, the girl reported that she told Hunter she didn’t want anymore, but Hunter pressured her to continue drinking.

The victim then stated that when she decided to go to sleep, Hunter began touching her inappropriately. She told the detective that she told Hunter to stop, as she felt very drunk.

According to the detective’s report, she “gave into Hunter’s advances, as she was unable to get up and leave due to her high level of intoxication.” Then Hunter and the victim had sexual intercourse. The girl was 12 at the time of the alleged sexual assault.

The girl did not tell anyone of the incident until two weeks later when she confided in her sister. Several weeks prior to the alleged assault, the girl told Hunter her age, according to court documents. Two friends of the victim confirmed to the detective that they were present when she told Hunter her age.

One of her friends told the detective that Hunter said he might have made a mistake and thought he had sex with the victim.

His criminal history involves possession of drug paraphernalia, engaging in lewd conduct and battery all in Las Vegas, Nevada.
