NEWS CONFERENCE RECAP:
Ventura County District Attorney Erik Nasarenko, Sheriff Jim Fryhoff, and Oxnard Police Department Assistant Chief Rocky Marquez announced the arrest and charges in a 1990... Oxnard cold case, made possible through advances in DNA testing.
Bobby Rollins Jr. (DOB 02/10/71), of Long Beach, is charged with kidnapping with intent to commit robbery, along with firearm use and other aggravating factors. In June 1990, the teenaged victim was kidnapped at gunpoint in Oxnard, robbed, and sexually assaulted. Rollins could not be charged with sexual assault due to the statute of limitations, but evidence collected from the victim at the hospital was instrumental in identifying Rollins today. He faces a maximum sentence of life in prison if convicted of all charges.
Investigators are also seeking information about a second suspect and potential additional victims between 1989 and 1992. Anyone with information is asked to contact Ventura County DA Investigators at (805) 477-1638.

Rollins was arrested without incident in Long Beach on June 10, 2026, by District Attorney Investigators with assistance from the Long Beach Police Department.
“More than three decades after this violent kidnapping, advances in DNA technology and the determination of investigators have led to the arrest of Rollins and justice on behalf of a victim who never forgot what happened to her,” District Attorney Erik Nasarenko said.
