A serial rapist faces up to 100 years in prison after pleading no contest Monday to two of the eight charges against him.

Christopher Ennis, 29, attacked as many as seven women over three years as the women walked alone in northeast Omaha, officials said.

Ennis grabbed them from behind, dragged them behind bushes or buildings, choked them and raped them.

Seven different women came forward saying that they had been raped after walking near the 27th and Maple Streets area. One of those women said Ennis also choked her to the point of unconsciousness — leading prosecutors to file a strangulation charge against him.

Douglas County Attorney Don Kleine said that a plea bargain was reached to spare the victims the trauma of reliving their attacks at trial.

Kleine said five of Ennis’ victims have cooperated with prosecutors; a couple of others didn’t show up for depositions.

One of the conditions of the plea deal, according to Kleine: that all of Ennis’ victims be allowed to write a letter to the judge explaining the impact the crime had on them.

Ennis’ crime spree was vicious and the attacks grew more violent — leading police to worry that the attacker might kill.
