Unbelievable and horrifying, just never know what kind of monsters are out there.

Woman held captive, raped over 5 weeks in rural Alaska, police say - CBS News

Quote:
A woman told police an abductor raped her up to six times a day while she was held captive over a five-week period in rural Alaska, with the last attack committed as she heard a military evacuation helicopter landing near the man's remote cabin to take her to a hospital.

The woman said Daniel Selovich, who goes by the nickname Pirate, used duct tape to bind the two together at night and placed a rope around her neck so she couldn't run away, Alaska State Trooper Matthew Iverson wrote in an affidavit.

She said, "it would be better for her to run away from the cabin and possibly be eaten by a bear than continue being physically and sexually assault by Daniel," Iverson wrote.

Interesting. Im thinking drugs were involved. This is a strange incident/story. It of course should be fully investigated and the perpetrator should be punished to the full extent of the law if the story is true.

" She claimed the first rape occurred in the vehicle within hours of being picked up. They spent a few days at a Fairbanks motel, where they engaged in consensual sex, authorities said."

The trooper saw bruising on the woman and lacerations on her neck as well as found rope tied to a roof beam and duct tape in the room.

Im not saying it is false just odd. She flew out to him into Alaska, was raped immediately, then had consensual sex then flew with him to the wilderness. Something is weird there.

Doesn't matter that she went willingly. What matters is that she was forced to stay unwillingly.
Quote:
On Oct. 1, they flew to his cabin about 16 miles south of Manley Hot Springs, a tiny village at the end of Elliott Highway, the only road link to Fairbanks. They lived in a tent for a week while repairs were being made to the cabin, and that's when the beatings and rapes began, she told Iverson.

She said Selovich beat her with his fists and belts, kicked her and bit her, and that the sex was not consensual.

She also said, "Daniel tied a rope around her neck which was also tied to a roof support beam, and he also tied her hands together so she could not move," according to the affidavit.

Iverson said troopers who searched the cabin with a warrant found a knife, several pieces of duct-tape and a roll of the tape. Troopers also found a rope tied to the roof beam.

-..........-

Iverson wrote that he saw bruising on the woman's arms and head and a laceration on the right side of her neck when interviewing her.

BBM

Her fault?

So she denied herself egress, duct taped her hands, ties herself to a beam?

She did all that?

It appears to be a misogynist statement to blame the woman for what the man chooses to do.
