Speaking in an interview with the woman(name witheld), She said that the man adopted her from her house and ordered her to call up her boyfriend as he wants him listen through the phone as he rapes her.

Fearlessly and hopelessly, I had to summon up courage and called 911. I was so happy when the emergency attendant understood all I said and next I saw was the policemen surrounding the scene she bluntly added.

Police were able to trace the 27-year-old suspect to a car park of an adult gift shop near Jonesboro in Atlanta as he allegedly sexually assaulted the woman
