Man Charged With Attempting To Drown Pregnant Woman
July 18, 2017
At Atmore man has been charged with throwing a pregnant woman into a river and then attempting to drown her.
Daniel Ray Raybon, age 30 of Nathan Road, Atmore, was charged with two counts of attempted murder, unlawful possession of marijuana first degree and criminal mischief first degree.
According to information released Tuesday by the Escambia County (AL) Sheriff’s Office, a passerby came across the Perdido River Bridge on Railroad Street in Nokomis on July 7 and witnessed an injured pregnant female and Raybon exiting truck at the creek. The pregnant female appeared to be bleeding from her face.
The witness said Raybon then threw the female into the river, holding her head under the water in what appeared to be an attempt to drown her. When the passerby shouted at Raybon, he released the female and fled the scene, running into the passerby’s truck.
The female was transported to an area hospital for treatment of her injuries.
Raybon was arrested Tuesday. He remains in the Escambia County (AL) Detention Center in Brewton.

If he ever puts quarters down on my billiard table, I will certainly remember his face; and his nature.
The guy is really a lowlife.
Shame on him for trying to kill an unborn child. Can you imagine anyone ,except the mother, doing that. Was he the father? Let the punishment fit the crime.nun
Don’t these women ever fight back? Being pregnant would cause me to fight to the death!
As a registered sex offender he should have been fixed and not be allowed to get anyone pregnant to begin with. I know him personally and know that he is abusive.Not sure why It didn’t Happen sooner that he wasn’t back in jail.I feel for the girl And all for his parents But he is not Ready for society And probably never will be.
That guy is a low life who should never see the light of day. Hope he rots.
I knew the laws are different for pregnant women In Florida. Here it is: the crime of Aggravated Battery on a Pregnant Person is classified as a Second Degree Felony punishable by up to fifteen (15) years in prison, fifteen (15) years of probation, and a $10,000 fine.
Aggravated Battery on a Pregnant Person is assigned a Level 7 offense severity ranking under Florida’s Criminal Punishment Code and, absent grounds for a downward departure sentence, a judge is required to sentence a person convicted of Aggravated Battery on a Pregnant Person to a minimum sentence of 21 months in prison, but may also sentence the person up to fifteen years in prison.
Threw her into the river and tried to drown a pregnant woman? Where am I? What country is this? Bring back the 1950s. No, wait….. the 1850s.
