Amos Gary Wright Jr., 25, of Vian was charged March 7 with three counts of second-degree rape and one count of domestic abuse.
At Wright's May 30 preliminary hearing, testimony was heard and Wright was bound over for trial on two of the rape counts. One of the rape counts was dismissed on defense objection. The state is expected to file amended information in the case, according to court records.
Wright is currently set to appear in court on June 16 for district court arraignment. His bond was reduced to $10,000. As of Thursday morning, county jail personnel said Wright was still in custody.
Charges against Wright stemmed from a Vian police investigation into an altercation in February at Gardenwalk Apartments in Vian. During the investigation, police discovered that Wright had been involved in a relationship with a juvenile girl and had been allegedly sexually involved for about six months, according to court records.
Another girl told police that she had witnessed Wright physically assaulting her friend several times over the past six months.
During a police interview, Wright allegedly denied that he had done anything to the girl. He told police that he and the girl were "just friends."
