Shrouded by law enforcement and victim advocates, the slight woman marched up to the podium to address Weld District Court Judge Shannon Lyons.

The man she and three other woman have accused of sexually assaulting them in the past several months was only visible on a computer screen, far enough away to provide some semblance of safety.

“I just came here to beg of you to consider the terror we have lived,” said the woman, before a courtroom in which Noman Boroumand appeared for a bond hearing Friday.

He has been charged with twenty nine felony counts including sexual onslaught, human trafficking for sexual servitude and stalking involving four women in the past few years. “The harassment and stalking is extended through third parties. My entire life revolves around looking over my shoulder and I am deftly afraid.

This week, the Weld County Grand Jury indicted both Boroumand, 45, who wielded 1st Choice Motors, five thousand nine hundred ninety 10th St., in Greeley for years before the state recently shut it down, and Fares Al Rashed, 38, holder of Alrashed Auto Sales, one thousand two hundred one 8th Ave. They appeared Friday in Weld District Court via movie feed from the Weld County Jail.

Weld District Court Judge Shannon Lyons imposed a $Trio million bond on Boroumand and a $1.Five million bond on Al Rashed after listening to arguments from Weld Chief Deputy District Attorney Thea Carrasco and hearing from three of five named victims in the indictment.

“I would suggest that this defendant has all of the incentive in the world to flee,” Carrasco said. In addition to the serious crimes in which he is charged, “at this moment I have an affidavit on my desk that involves one hundred counts of theft, fraud and criminal behavior” against Boroumand for deeds at his former car dealership. Formal charges in that case could come as soon as next week.

One alleged victim came to support Boroumand, stating he’s been a father to her children for the year and half she has been with him.

“We love him very much,” the woman, also named in the indictment. “I am not afraid of him, and my children are not afraid of him. I ask you not to take him away from my children.”

The indictment stems from a Greeley Police Department investigation that began this past December involving both boys and their behavior with the alleged victims that constituted human trafficking for sexual servitude, sexual brunt, stalking, domestic violence, and other associated crimes. The FBI assisted in the investigation. The indictment relays several incidents of rape and stalking involving one or both of the guys in the case, dating back to 2014.

In all, the indictment levies thirty six charges against the pair, involving four adult victims and one child, who was evidently present during a confrontation inbetween Boroumand and one of the alleged victims.

Boroumand’s defense attorney, Bob Ray, argued against a high bond in the case.

“The chances of conviction is somewhere inbetween slender and none, and none has left town,” he said

“The DA has been attempting to put him in jail forever,” Ray said. “Every victim in this case is an ex-girlfriend. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.”

According to the indictment, Boroumand’s charges involve the repeated rape of a individual assistant, with whom he began a individual relationship, stemming back to January 2016. The indictment states he not only raped her, but in one incident compelled her to have lovemaking with Al Rashed while he physically held her down. Both fellows raped her during several incidents, the indictment states.

The indictment also details an incident in which the woman attempted to sever ties with Boroumand, and he told her his mother had a heart attack to get into her home. When she opened her garage door, both Boroumand and Al Rashed were there, the indictment stated. Both studs raped the victim in the incident, the indictment stated.

The indictment also states that Boroumand threatened to kill a victim in his basement and stuff her bod in one of his vehicles and have it demolished. The indictment states he also accused her of watching other dudes. The victim said she witnessed Boroumand following and watching her on many occasions.

According to the indictment, the victim said she uncommonly left her house, and could scarcely function in daily life because of Boroumand’s stalking.

During one incident, the indictment stated, Boroumand asked a victim to inject him with steroids at her house. He brought Al Rashed with him, and coerced the victim to have hookup with Al Rashed, recording the onslaught on his phone.

In the incidents involving Al Rashed’s sexual assaults on the women, the indictment alleges, Boroumand instructed Al Rashed to leave the women money.

Al Rashed’s attorney, Ryan Cox out of the Springer & Steinberg law rigid in Denver, said Al Rashed was impatient to show up in court.

“He denies these charges and is anxious to contest and challenge the allegations,” Cox said.

Al Rashed already was facing numerous charges of child prostitution from a two thousand fifteen arrest into a another human trafficking ring that nabbed Paul Burman, who was convicted of several charges in a child prostitution ring.

Al Rashed in that case is accused of having hook-up with an underage damsel during the investigation into Burman’s activities by the Rocky Mountain Innocence Lost Task Force.

Boroumand’s legal troubles with women began in January, when he was arrested for misdemeanor brunt and later, twenty five counts of violating a protection order. Those cases, as well as a misdemeanor attack case from two thousand sixteen involving his live-in gf and the one alleged victim who supported him in court Friday, were all dismissed in March, only to be added in this fresh indictment.

In court Friday, the aunt of one of the alleged victims asked Lyons to keep them safe from Boroumand. The victims have suffered with Boroumand’s repeated and perfected pattern of stalking, and instilling terror, she said.

“The safety of the victims along with all others must be safeguarded to the maximum degree possible,” the woman pleaded. “Please use every device at your disposition to ensure this defendant” doesn’t proceed this behavior. “It is vitally significant to make the statement that these crimes will not be tolerated in civilized society.”
