Adonis Robinson - a sex offender
Robinson is a registered sex offender accused of trying to sexually assault a jogger near Marine Creek Lake in Fort Worth in 2019, Star-Telegram reported. According to an arrest warrant, Robinson attacked the victim from behind and threatened to beat her unconscious when she began screaming. He, however, saw someone coming to help her and fled the scene.
“Public enemy number one, Adonis Robinson, who’s also a registered sex offender. Public enemy number two, Jakobie Russell, who’s on the run,” Forest Hill Police Chief David Hernandez said at a news conference at City Hall on Wednesday. “They’re scared, they’re cowards, they’re hiding. We ask the public, please let us know where they’re at.”
Authorities have urged anyone with any information about the suspects to call 911. Those who want to remain anonymous, can contact through Crime Stoppers by calling 713-222-2TIPS.
"I want to reaffirm to the community that we will hold criminals accountable. We're not going to allow them to come in here and think they can get away with it," Chief Hernandez said.
