FORT WORTH, Texas - A repeat violent offender has been sentenced to 40 years in prison after pleading guilty to the aggravated sexual assault of a Mental Health Mental Retardation (MHMR) case worker during a home visit in Fort Worth.
44-year-old Ketorian Wilson entered a guilty plea in Tarrant County district court to aggravated sexual assault. The court sentenced him to 40 years in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice.
The case was investigated by the Fort Worth Police Department and prosecuted by Assistant Criminal District Attorneys Jeanne Truglio and Darren DeLaCruz.
According to court records, the assault occurred in February 2020 while the MHMR case worker was conducting a visit with Wilson as part of her professional duties.
During the attack, prosecutors said Wilson repeatedly struck the victim in the face before sexually assaulting her.
Wilson was initially arrested on Feb. 11, 2020, following the assault.
Court records show he was later arrested again on Nov. 26, 2025, on a warrant issued by the 396th District Court. He has remained in custody at the Lon Evans Corrections Center since that arrest until the resolution of the case.
Prosecutors described Wilson as a habitual offender with multiple prior convictions for assaultive offenses.
Court records also show that in 2021, while incarcerated in the Tarrant County Jail on a separate matter, Wilson filed a federal petition for a writ of habeas corpus in which he claimed he was "a President in America" and sought dismissal of his case and release from parole, asserting people would attempt to kill him if he returned to prison in Huntsville.
A federal court dismissed the petition with prejudice, describing it as frivolous.
MHMR case workers provide services to individuals living with mental illness, intellectual or developmental disabilities, or substance use disorders, helping connect clients with treatment, housing and other community resources.
The profession can present significant safety risks because case workers frequently interact with individuals experiencing psychiatric crises, active psychosis or substance intoxication. National organizations representing social workers have repeatedly highlighted workplace violence as an ongoing concern, citing assaults and killings of social workers across the country and calling for stronger safety protections for professionals who serve vulnerable populations.
Wilson will serve his 40-year sentence in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice.
