BOSTON (WBZNewsRadio) - It's been 15-years since Tuen Kit Lee evaded authorities during his trial and authorities say they haven't given up their search for justice. They're now offering a reward of up to $10,000 cash for any information leading to an arrest
Investigators said Lee raped a woman who worked as a waitress at his family's restaurant, Kagawa in Quincy, after breaking into her home in 2005. Authorities said Lee was wearing a mask and held the woman at knifepoint, before zip-tying her to a bed and sexually assaulting her.
Lee was identified as the suspected assailant by the smell of his breath and was given the nickname the "Bad Breath Rapist." by several media outlets. He ended up posting the $100,000 cash bail set by a bail clerk. After testifying in court, he failed to return for closing arguments and was convicted in absentia.
Anyone with information about LEE’s whereabouts is urged to contact Massachusetts State Police or the U.S. Marshall Service or the USMS at 1-833-677-3171 or at usmarshals.gov/tips .
