AG Bondi rips Minnesota for allowing Somali migrant, convicted serial rapist to walk free — before he committed another horrifying rape
US Attorney General Pam Bondi ripped Minnesota for allowing a convicted serial rapist and Somalian immigrant to walk free just months before he committed another horrific kidnapping and rape.
Abdimahat Bille Mohamed, who legally entered the US during the Obama administration, is charged with kidnapping and sexually assaulting a woman over several days in a hotel room in September.
Mohamed, 28, was only free because of sweet deals he’s received from state courts in two previous rape cases, including one involving a child.
“He committed a rape of a child, a horrific rape in 2017. Then he committed another rape in 2024. He’s arrested in state court, lives in the Minneapolis area the entire time,” Bondi railed on Fox News.
“He’s convicted in state court of both rapes [and] they let him walk out the door on probation. Double-rapist. Pled to ‘em, walked out the door.
“Then, under our administration, he commits a new rape,” she said. “He is arrested, he is in federal custody.”
The Justice Department is “going back in time and charging him again with kidnapping and the rape of the 2017 case,” she said, adding, “I can tell you there are more charges to come.”
Mohamed is accused of holding a woman he had met over Snapchat captive at a Bloomington, Minnesota, hotel and repeatedly assaulting her in September.
He took her phone and raped her over several days before she was able to jump out of his car and flag down help, court documents said.
In May 2024, he was arrested and charged for raping a woman at his Minneapolis apartment.
The victim, who he also met on Snapchat, said Mohamed strangled her and threatened to shoot her if she did not have sex with him.
His DNA in that case then led investigators to the 2017 rape of a 15-year-old girl who said Mohamad attacked her after she was forced at gunpoint to perform oral sex on another man.
He was sentenced to three years in prison for the attack on the teenager — but the sentence was stayed for five years, meaning he served no time in prison.
He additionally received a sentence of five years probation and 364 days in the Hennepin County workhouse, but received credit for time served.
He was sentenced to 14 months in prison for the 2024 sexual assault, but that sentence was also stayed. That sentencing included another 364 days in the Hennepin County workhouse with credit for time served, plus a single day of probation.
Bondi said federal authorities are running Mohamad’s DNA through “databases for all these unsolved rapes.”
“So let’s wait and see how many charges come out of that,” she said.
Mohamed is being held without bail on the latest rape charge. He is next due in court on New Year’s Eve.
