Man found guilty on 3 counts of rape and abduction

Daniel Eugene Dalton of Middletown was convicted of three counts each of rape and abduction for the February 7 abduction of three Hamilton women. He forced them at gunpoint to the Day's Inn in Monroe, where two were raped, with one attacked again in a King Kwik parking lot. The defense claimed a personal religious conflict, while psychiatrists differed on Dalton's mental state and control. Assistant prosecutors cited a earlier car approach as evidence of capacity to resist.
