AUGUSTA — A Winthrop man was indicted last week on gross sexual assault and kidnapping charges for allegedly raping a woman after holding a knife to her neck.

Jon L. Westerlund, 35, was arrested in July and charged with gross sexual assault and kidnapping, both class A charges punishable by up to 30 years in prison, and violating a condition of release for the July 22 incident.

A Kennebec County grand jury that rose last week indicted him on those same charges.

An indictment is not an indication of guilt but does indicate enough evidence exists for the case to proceed with formal charges and a trial.

According to an affidavit filed by Officer Paul Ferland of the Winthrop Police Department, Westerlund got a ride to his Winthrop Center Road apartment from the alleged victim, who walked him in, after which he shut the door behind them.

The alleged victim told police Westerlund then pushed her up against the kitchen cabinets and pulled a large knife out of a drawer. She said he held the knife to her neck. She said Westerlund stood and stared at her for about five minutes, then put the knife to his side and later on a counter and walked her to his couch.

She said he told her not to yell because his daughter was upstairs sleeping. She told police she was scared and did not know what to do.

She said the two went upstairs to Westerlund’s bedroom and he told her to lie down. When she did, he allegedly took an approximately 6-inch knife from the bedside stand and placed it on the pillow next to her head. She said Westerlund told her that if she tried to leave, she knew what would happen.

The victim said Westerlund then went to sleep. She said she was too afraid to do anything, so she just stayed there. When he awoke later in the morning, Westerlund allegedly started rubbing and kissing her, then undressing and sexually assaulting her.

After the alleged assault, the victim got dressed and went downstairs, she said, and Westerlund returned her car keys to her and let her leave.
