Upshaw was arrested in 1991 and 1994 in Gallup New Mexico for sex crimes and he should be considered very dangerous.

The incident occurred on Thursday night, August 20, 2009 in Castaic. The suspect asked the victim for a ride and she agreed to provide it to him if he bought her a bottle of alcohol.

The suspect drove the victim’s vehicle to a remote dirt road in the Castaic area where she was assaulted and raped. Upshaw may be responsible for similar crimes in other states and commonly works as a commercial truck driver. He may live on or frequent Indian reservations.
