DJ Erick Morillo charged with sexual battery after ‘woman woke up and found him standing naked by side of bed’
INTERNATIONAL nightclub DJ Erick Morillo has been arrested and charged with sexual battery after a woman claimed he sexually assaulted her in his home last December.
Morillo, 49, was arrested after a woman claimed to have been sexually assaulted by him at his Miami Beach residence in December of 2019.
Detectives say that Morillo and the accuser were both working as DJs at a private party on Star Island.
The victim told detectives that Morillo “made several advances towards her, some sexual in nature, but she refused all of his attempts," according to the arrest report.
She also mentioned having been feeling intoxicated and found an empty room in the home to sleep by herself.
She reported "waking up nude on the bed, with Mr. Morillo standing on the side of the bed also nude.”
The American-Colombian DJ initially denied the claims against him however results of a rape kit that came back on Wednesday tested positive for his DNA.
Police said Morillo turned himself in while accompanied by his lawyer.
