Lawrence and Manhattan authorities have received dozens of tips since this summer in the so-called college rapist case.

Both the Lawrence and the Riley County police departments continue to jointly investigate the case of a suspected serial rapist thought to have attacked 14 University of Kansas and Kansas State University students since 2000.

A press conference in late July brought new attention to the unsolved case.

At that time, police announced some previously unreleased information and promoted a new website with information and safety tips, kansascollegerapist.com.

Since then, Lawrence and Riley County police have collectively received more than 40 tips, Lawrence Police Officer Drew Fennelly said.

Police have not announced any new attacks linked to the same suspect.

When asked whether, since this summer, police had received any rape or other sex crime reports suspected of being committed by the same man, Fennelly said, “Since the press conference, there hasn’t been any new evidence to indicate a recent assault is similar to the previously discussed incidents.”

In a pre-Thanksgiving break news release with residential and personal safety tips for the public, the agencies also reminded the public of the ongoing investigation.

“We are still actively investigating the Kansas College Rapist cases and will continue to follow up on any tips we receive,” the press release said. “We encourage anyone with information to contact law enforcement.”

Authorities have described the suspected rapist as “cold, calm, calculated.”

While none of the rapes or attempted rapes happened over Thanksgiving break, all but the first occurred during other breaks from university classes.

All happened off campus but in residential areas where many university students live.

The suspect typically entered the women’s homes in the early-morning hours while they were asleep, wore a mask and threatened them with a handgun. He is described as a white male between 5 feet 9 inches and 6 feet tall, probably at least 35 years old now, and heavy-set with a “prominent stomach.”
