Isaiah Williams was charged with two felonies: rape and forcible penetration.

A 20-year-old man is accused of sexual assault and the Boise Police Department is concerned there could be more victims, according to a Thursday news release.

Isaiah Williams, of Boise, faces two felonies: rape and forcible penetration by the use of a foreign object, according to court records. He’s also facing a misdemeanor charge for the possession of a controlled substance.

Williams appeared for his initial hearing Thursday afternoon, online court records showed. Magistrate Judge Cathleen MacGregor Irby, who typically presides over juvenile cases in Ada County, set his bond at only $20,000.

“During the investigation, detectives obtained information that leads them to believe there may be additional victims,” the Boise Police Department said.

Police asked anyone with additional information about this or any other incidents involving Williams to call Ada County Dispatch at 208-377-6790 or the Ada County Victim Services Center at 208-577-4400.
