He was known as the "Center City rapist" in Philadelphia, committed a series of rapes in from 1997 to 1999; during a 1998 rape, he also murdered his victim, Shannon Schieber. Graves left Philadelphia and eventually settled in Colorado where, in Fort Collins in 2001, he again committed a series of rapes. Following a joint investigation by law enforcement in both cities, they were able to find a link between Graves and his presence in both localities during the applicable time frames, with fingerprint and DNA evidence confirming his involvement. He was arrested in Fort Collins in April 2002, and within five weeks had pleaded guilty to crimes in both cities. He is serving a life sentence in the Sterling Correctional Facility in Sterling, Colorado.
