Coquille police arrested a registered sex offender Sunday on charges including multiple counts of rape, kidnapping and assault.

Police Chief Mark Dannels said a friend of the victim, a Coquille woman in her 40s, called 911 dispatchers to report an assault and rape shortly after 8 a.m.

An investigation led police to the suspect’s apartment on Thomas Street in Coos Bay, where they arrested Paul W. Pizzola, 42, on charges including two counts of first-degree rape, first-degree kidnapping, first-degree sexual abuse, fourth-degree assault, menacing, interfering with a 911 call and possession of methamphetamine. He was taken to Coos County jail, where he was being held this morning on $2.3 million bail.

Dannels said the victim knew her assailant, though they had only recently met.

A Citizen: If someone has been listed as a Registered Sex Offender, that means they have committed a sex crime, tried for it, and found guilty. Who are any of us to judge? He's already been judged as a sex offender at least once.

Coos county needs to watch over these sex offenders better. It seems at least once a week I see in here that one is being arrested for not regerstering. It's rediculous. If they dont register they should just stay in prison were they belong.
Hopefully this guy will be locked up and they will throw away the key, somehow I highly dought that will happen.

What ever happened to "Innocent until proven guilty?" Just because some one is a 'registered sex offender' Does not always mean they did anything wrong. Who are any of you to judge? So before acusing someone, take a look at yourself. Point a finger at someone, and there are 3 pointing back at you. I'm not saying he's innocent or guilty, just it is not for any of us to judge, blame, ridicule, or decide. Lets not forget these people have families and children also, who hear when you say bad things. Reguardless if the person is right or wrong. The children are listening. In this small comunity your children go to school, see the children of the ones you ridicule and judge; then your children treat those other kids as you are twards their family member(s). That is not ok. The families, and children get hurt by the things you say and do.
