Police are on the lookout for a 41-year-old man who allegedly drugged and raped three of his daughter's friends over the course of seven months when they stayed over at their home in Queens, New York, for sleepovers.

Dwayne Gordon was accused of raping three 13-year-old girls in separate incidents at his home in the Springfield Gardens neighborhood between October 2020 and May, the New York Police Department (NYPD) said in a statement released Friday.

The incidents allegedly occurred while the girls were having sleepovers with his daughter, WCBS-TV reported, citing unnamed sources. According to the sources, Gordon allegedly drugged the victims.

The case comes two weeks after a 38-year-old Rapid City, South Dakota man was found guilty of raping three girls several times between December 2015 and December 2017.

Teddy Guzman was convicted on three counts of first-degree rape and one count of having sexual contact with a minor. Prosecutors said the oldest victim was 12 when she was raped during a sleepover. The second one was between 9 and 10, and the youngest girl was 5 or 6.

"What these girls have been through in the pursuit of the truth has been hell, and I am so proud of them and so grateful to the jury for seeing that what happened to them was a horror and for putting an end to Teddy Guzman’s reign of terror," prosecutor Lara Roetzel said following the May 13 verdict.

The parents of the oldest victim, now 15, said she "used to be happy all the time and she's not now."

"She doesn't want to do anything," her mother was quoted as saying by local newspaper the Rapid City Journal. "She just has no ambition anymore."

Another victim also told the court she has "stopped caring about things" after the sexual assaults. "I stopped being good. I stopped being nice to people," she said.

Roetzel said the youngest victim no longer trusts men.
