DARLINGTON, S.C. (AP) - A man charged with abducting two teenage girls and raping them in an underground room behind his home was denied bail Wednesday for the second time. Kenneth G. Hinson, 47, was captured Friday after a four-day manhunt in the woods near his home.
Circuit Judge Michael Baxley refused to set bail on three first-degree burglary charges against him Wednesday. On Saturday, a magistrate also denied bail on charges of criminal sexual conduct, assault and battery, and kidnapping.
Authorities say Hinson abducted two 17-year-old girls one at a time from a nearby home while they were sleeping and took them to the room, no larger than a closet, where both were sexually assaulted.
