When last we updated you on the Mackenzie Lueck case on Aug. 14, her accused killer, 31-year-old Nigerian immigrant Ayoola Ajayi, had been charged with 19 counts of sexual exploitation of a minor after police say they found child pornography on his computer.
Lueck, a 23-year-old member of the Alpha Chi Omega sorority at the University of Utah, had apparently been meeting men through “sugar baby” sites and dating apps. Police say she met up with Ajayi on June 17; her charred remains were found in a canyon July 3, and Ajayi was charged with aggravated murder, aggravated kidnapping, desecration of a human body, and obstruction of justice. Since then, another woman has come forward claiming that she was sexually assaulted by Ajayi more than a year before Lueck was murdered:
A woman told investigators that she began communicating with Ajayi through a dating app in March of 2018. The woman went to Ajayi’s house, 547 N. 1000 West, where he cooked her dinner. But then he started to “intensely” kiss her and touch her, according to the new charges.
The woman attempted to get away, but Ajayi “pinned her down on the couch against her will,” charging documents state. Ajayi continued to sexually assault the woman, leaving bruising and bite marks on her, according to the charges.
On Aug. 20, Ajayi was charged with aggravated kidnapping and three counts of forcible sexual abuse in that case.
