James Partee, 47, is charged with two counts of rape by force or fear, kidnapping, DUI, assault with a dangerous weapon, and unauthorized use of a motor vehicle.

According to Department of Corrections records, Partee previously served time in the '80s and '90s for second degree burglary and grand larceny out of Tulsa County. He was convicted in 2001 for unauthorized use of a motor vehicle in Osage County, and sentenced to five years in prison, but was released in October 2003.
