A Guyanese private detective in Queens, New York who raped his ex-girlfriend, also a Guyanese, and then framed her for a series of fictional crimes was sentenced to the maximum of 32 years in prison today, the New York Times reported.
Using techniques he gleaned from watching crime dramas like “C.S.I.,” Jerry Ramrattan, 39, orchestrated what prosecutors in Queens called one of the most elaborate frame-ups in recent history.
Ramrattan’s ex-girlfriend, Seemona Sumasar, 36, had accused him of raping her. When she refused to drop the rape charges, he created a scheme that landed her in jail for seven months. His scheme had implicated Sumasar in a series of brazen armed robberies.
