The homeless woman allegedly raped at knifepoint by a migrant with a history of sexual assault told The Post Tuesday it felt like her attacker wanted to kill her — as she recalled, “I kept telling him God was watching him.”
“It wasn’t rape, it was attempted murder,” the 46-year-old woman, who The Post is not identifying, said from Coney Island.
“He didn’t try to rape me, he tried to kill me,” she said. “I kept telling him God was watching him.”
She added: “I hope he gets a long time. I’m afraid he’s going to kill somebody.”
Daniel Davon-Bonilla, 24, a Nicaraguan migrant, was charged with the brutal Sunday night assault under the Riegelmann Boardwalk.
He had been out of jail for less than two months — after having been charged with another rape from April 2023 — when he allegedly attacked the woman, according to court records.
His accused accomplice, 37-year-old Mexican national Leovando Moreno, was charged with assault for allegedly slamming the victim’s boyfriend in the back with a pipe.
The woman’s boyfriend, Ray Ramsammy, 34, said Tuesday that he went to get coffee and came back to find his girlfriend being brutalized.
“I tried to pull the guy off her and he tried to stab me,” Ramsammy recalled. “I grabbed the pipe with one hand and the other one was behind me, hit me with a brick. Hit me in the back.
“I ran out over there and I asked people to call the police, ‘Call the police!’” he said.
“She was hurt a lot. I was hurt a little. I’m a man, I got feelings. But she was really hurt,” Ramsammy added of his girlfriend of two weeks, with whom he had been living in an encampment on Coney Island.
“She’s messed up right now. When it started getting dark out last night she was getting paranoid. She sees Hispanic men today and she thinks it’s going to happen again. She’s really upset.”
