‘Romeo Rapist' Charged in Third Attack: BSO

Tamarac man now facing charges in three separate attacks on women

The Tamarac man dubbed the "Romeo Rapist" is facing even more sexual battery charges after a third victim came forward claiming he attacked her at gunpoint, police said.

Andre Miguel Beadle, 35, was arrested Oct. 12 on kidnapping and sexual battery charges in two separate attacks over the summer, according to the Broward Sheriff's office.

According to a BSO report released Wednesday, Beadle raped a third woman in his home just weeks after he's alleged to have attacked two other women. The third attack happened on Aug. 11, following alleged rapes on June 27 and July 24.

In the August attack, police say the victim arrived at Beadle's home, where he began taking off his clothes and placed a gun on his sofa, according to the report.

Beadle grabbed the woman's hair, shoved her to the floor and raped her, the report said.  

The victim begged him to stop, and considered either trying to fight him off or run, but told police she was afraid to because the gun was within his reach, the report said.

In the first incident in June, police say Beadle met the woman while working as a security guard at a Fort Lauderdale Publix. When Beadle picked her up for a dinner date, he told her he had to swing by his apartment to change clothes, police said.

While in the apartment, he sexually battered her, then drove her home, police said.

Less than a month later, Beadle invited another woman and her 3-year-old daughter to his apartment for dinner, according to the BSO.

Beadle told the woman they had to eat in his bedroom because there was no other furniture in the apartment, then attacked her in front of her daughter.

Police said Beadle put the woman in a headlock and told her he could snap her neck and that he had killed before and would do it again. He then put a blanket over himself and the woman and raped her, police said.

Beadle remains behind bars on $300,000 bond. It is unknown whether he has an attorney.
