A trial for a man charged with rape and two counts of aggravated sexual battery started Friday in Riley County District Court.

Joshue Sandoval Serrano, 23, was arrested in 2024 for his alleged crimes. He has maintained a plea of innocence. The trial started Friday with jury selection and is scheduled to go through Thursday.

The prosecution stated in a complaint filed with the court that on Oct. 28, 2023, Sandoval Serrano engaged in sexual intercourse with a woman while she was “incapable of giving consent due to the effect of alcohol.” The document alleges the counts of aggravated sexual battery come from the same incident with the same victim. Prosecutors said he was aware of the woman’s condition.
