A Brooklyn jury convicted a former construction worker yesterday of leading women to his work sites and raping them.
Kingsley Ewing, 36, was convicted of four counts of rape and faces up to 100 years in prison.
Ewing approached his four victims, all strangers, in the street and started conversations before attacking them. The first two rapes, in 2002, occurred when Ewing led the women to a building under construction in the Sunset Park section of Brooklyn. He was a member of the construction crew working at the site.
The other rapes occurred in the Bedford-Stuyvesant section of Brooklyn in 2003 and 2006.
DNA evidence was used to convict Ewing of all four rapes. He will be sentenced on April 10.
