Meterologist faces rape charge

TWIN FALLS -- A KMVT meteorologist has been charged with raping a woman in his apartment after a date Friday night. Prosecutors say John William Holland, 23, of Twin Falls used “force or violence” to restrain the woman during the attack. Holland was arraigned Monday in Twin Falls County Magistrate Court on one felony count of rape. Bond was set at $10,000. Holland’s attorney, Chuck Peterson, said during Monday’s arraignment his client “adamantly denies the charge” and called the nature of the charge “very thin.” Peterson requested $10,000 bond after prosecutors argued for $50,000 bond/Twin Falls Times-News.
