According to an affidavit for a search warrant filed in Spotsylvania Circuit Court, the incident began on July 21, and the victim told police that she and Kamer had begun what she thought was leading to consensual sex. He then suddenly forced her face down and strapped her arms and legs with straps he had attached to a mattress. She questioned what he was doing and Kamer replied, “something different.”

The affidavit states that the woman told Swift that she was beaten and raped repeatedly. She said she asked him numerous times to stop.
