Isaac Wolf Yampolsky, 23, allegedly raped the 21-year-old woman at her apartment in Chicago on November 17
A man charged with sexually assaulting a woman he was dating last year later told his ex-girlfriend and two roommates that he raped her and six other women, according to Cook County prosecutors.
Isaac Wolf Yampolsky, 23, allegedly raped the 21-year-old woman at her apartment in Chicago on November 17.
He was then said to have called his ex-girlfriend and told her that he raped the woman and six others, prosecutors said during Yampolsky’s Friday bail hearing at the Leighton Criminal Court Building.
Prosecutors also say that the man informed his two roommates of the assaults, adding that the most recent was violent and that he ‘should be locked up,’ Assistant State’s Attorney Nancee Hofheimer said, according to the Chicago Sun Times.
Yampolsky – from Reston, Virginia – also called ‘another young woman’ and informed her that he ‘relasped’ and had sexually assaulted someone, Hofheimer added.
He was then said to have called his ex-girlfriend and told her that he raped the woman and six others. Prosecutors also say that the man informed his two roommates of the assaults, adding that the most recent was violent and that he ‘should be locked up’
Nine days after the attack took place, the 21-year-old woman got in contact with police. Yampolsky turned himself in on Thursday.
The recent Northwestern University graduate was charged with a felony count of aggravated sexual assault but he may face additional charges as Chicago police are still investigating.
Yampolsky’s lawyer, Andrew Weisberg, described had never been arrested before. Weisberg also explained that the man participated in many charitable pursuits while at NU, including working in a soup kitchen and chairing the community outreach committee for his fraternity.

The lawyer also asked the judge to consider that Yampolsky willingly turned himself in once he learned that charges may be brought up. He had returned home to Virginia.
Yampolsky’s father was in attendance at Friday’s hearing as Weisberg explained to Judge Mary Marubio that the family could afford a bond that was set between $75,000 and $100,000.
Yampolsky was seeing a therapist in Virginia and his lawyer asked if he could return home, but Marubio denied bail and ordered that the suspect be held at the Cook County Jail.
And when Weisberg asked if bail could be considered if Yampolsky stayed in the county, Marubio said no and added: ‘I find 100 percent [Yampolsky] poses a real and present threat to the community.’
