'Violent' sex offender brutally raped 61-year-woman, cops say
[NYPOST] A "violent mostly peaceful" sex offender raped a woman outside his group home on Wards Island — leaving her with bruises on her face and body, The Post has learned.

Police found the victim, 61, in Wards Island Park just after 4 p.m. Wednesday, walking half-naked with a bloody T-shirt that was ripped in half.

The woman had severe swelling to her face and bruises all over her back, according to cops and a graphic photo obtained by The Post.

William Manning, 35, was arrested and charged with rape, sexual assault and criminal possession of a weapon, police said.

Manning, who gave an address for a Wards Island group home run by the Manhattan Psychiatric Center, was designated a "sexually violent mostly peaceful offender" by the state after a sex abuse conviction from 2014 in which he choked and beat a 22-year-old stranger, records show.

The felon served four years of his five-year sentence in prison and was on parole until 2024, prison records show.
