MIDVALE — A 29-year-old Midvale man is accused of sexually assaulting and beating a pregnant teenager who claims they are married.

The man was booked into the Salt Lake County Jail for investigation of two counts of rape and assault of a pregnant woman. KSL.com is not naming the man to protect the identity of the victim.

The investigation began on May 13 when a 17-year-old girl, who is six weeks pregnant, reported being assaulted by a 29-year-old man. The girl lives with the man "as a religious spouse," according to a police booking affidavit.

The girl, who is still in high school, "disclosed she had been in an arranged marriage since January 2024, when she was just shy of her 16th birthday," the affidavit states. However, Unified police stated in the arrest report that "the marriage was completed through the Muslim religion but is not a legally recognized marriage."

The girl revealed that she started having sexual intercourse with the man daily after they were "married."

On the night of May 12, the two got into an argument, and the man "lunged at her and started hitting and kicking her. The victim believes she was hit and kicked by (him) at least 40-50 times," according to the affidavit.

Police noted the girl had a "large golf ball-sized" bump on the side of her head and bruises on her forearms.

When the man was questioned by police, he "made no mention of having a current spouse or girlfriend," the affidavit states.

He was taken into custody after being questioned.

Not what I expected when I heard “Utah man.”

I was thinking a different denomination starting with M and consisting of six letters

She was still 15 at time of marriage which is illegal all the way around, and I just read where 16 and 17 year olds in Utah require both the consent of the parents and judicial approval.

The age of consent is 18 but with a 7 year difference for its Romeo and Juliet exception for 16 and 17 which still doesn’t cover this guy. Even the 10 year difference when the adult does not reasonably know the 16 or 17 year old’s age doesn’t apply ( also 7 & 10 year Romeo and Juliet age differences are too long).

Without judicial approval this guy is getting what should come to him for multiple crimes against this girl regardless of whether or not he gets parents to back him, mosque to back him, and tries to state marriage actually happened when the girl was 16.

Definitely not a real marriage. Ten years in, and it’s never been “daily” here.

Kudos for waiting until married, husband of the year award nominee.

I guess because the “pregnant” part isn’t in the title- I thought it was about a gay marriage- and was expecting this to be about some Joe Exotic type bs

Interesting. I wouldn’t have thought so either.
