Joshua Henderson, 33, was arrested and charged with rape, robbery and other charges after a woman claimed he assaulted her in her home and threatened her with forced incest, death or rape

A man is accused of raping a woman in New York City after breaking into her home and then giving her the choice of being raped, killed or having sex with her adult son.

The Queens district attorney's office said Joshua Henderson, 33, raped and robbed the victim in her Queens home on September 16 at about 6pm.

Police said that Henderson had worn a yellow vest while posing as a construction worker to get into the victim's building, according to the New York Daily News.

He allegedly knocked on the woman's door and engaged her in conversation when she answered. She was able to cut the talk short and shut the door on him, police said.

A few minutes later, Henderson allegedly gained entrance to the woman's home via an unlocked fire escape window and managed to convince her that he had a gun.

That was when Henderson supposedly told the woman that she had three choices: He could rape her, he could kill her or she could have sex with her 25-year-old son, who was home at the time of the incident. The woman also has a teenage, special needs son, but he was not home at the time.

Henderson then allegedly used wire and an extension cord to tie up the woman's son in another room, then raped the woman.

Henderson was arrested at his bail bondsmen's shop where he was checking in on Wednesday. He was out on parole and wearing an ankle monitor at the time of the alleged assault

In an effort to eliminate any DNA evidence, he was said to have sprayed the woman with soapy water after allegedly violating her.

On his way out of the home, Henderson allegedly stole jewelry, money and other valuables.

Henderson was arrested on September 18 while he was checking in at IC Bail Bonds, in Brooklyn, New York, where he had previously had his bail secured, according to PIX 11.

Prosecutors said Thursday that Henderson was charged with rape, robbery and other charges. He was said to have been pictured in surveillance video footage and that the woman picked him out of a photo array and lineup.

He was held without bail following his arraignment Thursday night.

His wife, Joanna Henderson, 37, told the New York Daily News that he 'didn't do anything' and that he has three children.

'He’s a loving, caring man. He’d give you his last,' she told the newspaper, adding that 'The DNA is going to prove he didn’t do this. I’m telling you the DNA is going to prove he didn’t do anything.'

Henderson was said to have been on parole at the time of the alleged rape and wearing an ankle monitor, which put him at the incident scene.

His criminal history is said to date back 17 years, to when he was 16 years old, according to PIX 11.

Among the lowlights of his criminal past, was having pleaded guilty to a string of burglaries in 2009, which resulted in his being sentenced to 12 years in prison.

He was paroled in 2018, after serving nine years, and is under parole supervision until 2023.

However, during the scant time that he has been out on parole, Henderson was arrested on five suspected burglaries and released on bail each time - all without having had his parole violated supposedly because an an administrative law judge prevented the revoking of his parole.

And, while out on bail, he was also arrested on grand larceny charges for allegedly using credit cards taken during a previous burglary - which he was given bail for and, once again, did not have his parole violated.

Sources told the New York Daily News that Henderson is now being looked at as a possible suspect in several open rape and unsolved burglary cases.
