Woman accused of attacking MySpace acquaintance pleads guilty to sex charge

DAYTON — A woman accused of sexually assaulting another woman she met through the MySpace social networking website will be sentenced Feb. 4 for gross sexual imposition.

Markita L. Harper

Markita L. Harper pleaded guilty to the charge on Jan. 21 before Montgomery County Common Pleas Judge A.J. Wagner. Four other charges, including kidnapping, attempted gross sexual imposition and two counts of unlawful restraint, were dismissed.

Harper, 20, of Dayton, went to the victim’s apartment to watch movies with her when the alleged assault occurred on Dec. 11, police said. A friend of the victim showed up at the apartment and pulled Harper away from the victim, police said.

Harper has been in the Montgomery County Jail since her Dec. 18 arrest.
