PHOENIX — The suspect accused of sexually assaulting and impregnating an incapacitated woman at a Phoenix healthcare facility was a Christian rapper and has been a licensed healthcare worker in Arizona for the past 14 years.

Rap songs featuring Nathan Sutherland, 36, and his group "SLEEPLESSOULJAZ" can be found in online videos.

The videos give us a glimpse into Sutherland’s background and history.

In one YouTube video, Sutherland said during an interview that he was born in Haiti and was placed in an orphanage before being adopted.

“My parents actually they split up in Haiti, and I remember my mom couldn’t take care of us so she took us to an orphanage,” Sutherland said.

ABC15 obtained Sutherland’s full file from the Arizona State Board of Nursing.

The records do not indicate any discipline and confirm that he was born in La Chapelle, Haiti.
