In 2007 Reid was charged with second degree rape and multiple counts of burglary for an assault on a Washington State University student. The incident took place in September of that year, and Reid was originally released in October 2007 on a $200,000 bail paid for by his girlfriend. On December 22, 2008 he was convicted after jury deliberations that lasted just three hours,[3] and given a life sentence for his crime.[4] That conviction was affirmed in April, 2010, by the Washington Court of Appeals, which rejected Reid's claims that his trial lawyer had been ineffective and that the evidence against him had been insufficient.[5] In September, 2010, the Washington State Supreme Court denied further review in the case.[6] He is currently incarcerated at the Stafford Creek Corrections Center in Aberdeen, Washington. His Department of Corrections number is 324543. He will be eligible for parole after serving 9 years of his sentence
