Former Fox Correspondent Arrested in Virginia, Charged With Rape

A Former Fox News correspondent and WDBJ reporter was arrested last night and charged with both rape and forcible sodomy.

Orlando Salinas was a Fox News correspondent until 2012, and he followed that up working as a reporter at WDBJ. (The station says he was let go “due to insubordination.”)

He had apparently been under investigation for a while, and the January incident he’s being charged for did not involve his wife.

WSLS reports that he had a prior history of larceny.

Watch WSLS’ report above.
