Frederick Dozier, the man accused of sexually assaulting three women near 24th Street in the Mission over the past six months, pled not guilty to all 26 felony counts he's been charged with at today's arraignment. There is DNA evidence linking Dozier to the crime scenes, but according to KTVU's courtroom report, Dozier's assigned public defender expects the process of sorting through all the evidence to take several months.

Dozier is charged with attempted murder, kidnapping, robbery, attempted rape, forcible oral copulation and other sexual assault charges in the three attacks. He is currently being held without bail. Dozier, who is a former employee of the San Francisco Unified School District and the Green Streets program, will appear in court again on February 23rd.
