A Manhattan banker raped a 25-year-old woman at her apartment while
calling her a “f–king bitch” and telling her “you had this coming,”
prosecutors said.
Mark Harris, 38, was arraigned on rape and sexual abuse charges in
Manhattan Criminal Court Thursday for the alleged Feb. 25 attack inside
the woman’s Midtown apartment.
Prosecutors said that Harris — who works in energy and infrastructure
finance at Investec — pulled the victim’s pants down before he held her
down against a mattress and raped her.
The victim tried fighting off the sexual predator by repeatedly pleading
for him to stop before she was able to kick him off of her, according to
the criminal complaint.
As he left the apartment, Harris allegedly degraded the victim by calling
her a “f–king bitch” before telling her that she deserved the attack.
“You had this coming,” Harris sneered, according to prosecutors.
Harris is free on $150,000 cash bail, which was requested by prosecutors.
His attorney, Jason Goldman, said in a statement that Harris is innocent
and expects the case to be dropped.
“Unfortunately, we live in a world where somebody like Mr. Harris — an accomplished professional who would never so much as contemplate this
crime — can be arrested on the uncorroborated word of an unhinged
individual, Goldman said.
“Our investigation has already revealed evidence which exonerates Mr.
Harris. He is innocent, the case will be dismissed, and if there’s any
hope for society, his reputation will not be ruined by this sanctionably
false report.”
Harris lives in a two-bedroom, two-bath apartment in the swanky Brooklyn
Point building in Downtown Brooklyn, where a recent listing for a similar
unit sold for $2.6 million.
Harris spent 11 years at Japanese powerhouse bank SMBC where he served as
the director of structured and project finance before joining SMBC Nikko Securities in 2022, according to his LinkedIn profile.
He then joined Investec, an international banking company, working as a bookrunner on deals in the US, his profile said.
Investec did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Harris is due back in court on March 11.
