ANCHORAGE—A 28-year-old Anchorage man accused of sexually assaulting two young girls, then threatening to kill them with a sword if they told of the assaults, was arrested Wednesday, police said.

Keone Jason Lee invited a homeless woman and her four children to stay with him during the month of July in his travel trailer on the 1400 block of Marten Street in Nunaka Valley, police said. 

Within days, police said Lee began sexually abusing an 11-year-old girl and her 6-year-old sister. Lee then threatened to kill friends and family with a 26-inch sword, with a sharpened 18-inch blade, if the children told of the assaults.
 
Police were told of the assaults on Tues., July 19, and began investigating.
 
A search of Lee’s computer revealed more than 250 images of infant pornography and pornographic images of other children in a variety of ages, police said.
 
Detectives don’t know whether Lee produced the pornography himself or downloaded the images online.  
 
Lee was charged with four counts of first-degree sexual abuse of a minor, five counts of second-degree sexual abuse of a minor and two counts of third-degree Assault.
 
Lee was booked into the Anchorage jail, with bail set at $100,000 plus third party custodian.
 
Detectives say Lee may have molested other children.
 
Anyone with information on Lee is asked to call Anchorage police Detective Chris Thomas at 786-2628.
