SPOKANE, Wash. — A Spokane man is behind bars after police say he repeatedly raped a child and molested another.

John Minor, 43, of Spokane, is accused of raping a child he knew multiple times and frequently molesting another.

Minor never appeared for his arraignment, and during his first appearance on May 28, the prosecutor confirmed he was found in the Philippines. Minor was arrested and extradited to Spokane.

Minor’s bond was set to $2,000,000.

“That is to take into account the extreme flight risk, the absconding behavior, the apparent means and ability to flee the country,” the judge said.

Minor faces seven counts of first-degree rape of a child, two counts of second-degree rape of a child, four counts of first-degree child molestation, three counts of second-degree child molestation, two counts of indecent liberties and five counts of lewd conduct.
