Cleveland's infamous "West Park Rapist," Ronnie Shelton, who had been sentenced to thousands of years in prison for raping over 30 women, reportedly jumped off a building at the Grafton Correctional Institution last week. The Cuyahoga County Medical Examiner's Office records show that Shelton suffered a fractured skull and other injuries when he landed on the concrete floor.
Investigators are treating the incident as a suspected suicide and do not suspect any foul play involved, records state. Shelton was imprisoned in 1989 for a series of rapes.
