ORIGINAL: kalikshama isoLadyOwner, Would you be so kind as to provide a link to your story, which appears to have more details than the three articles I read. Thanks, KK Here's a link, there might be newer stories: http://abclocal.go.com/wabc/story?section=news/local/new_york&id=7961000 quote:

For example, according to AP the victim is reported to have briefly escaped and phoned her mother "saying she was going to kill herself because she couldn't bear to be locked up anymore." Never mind, I found the source. quote:
Authorities were called to the apartment Saturday after the woman's mother contacted authorities in Wisconsin. The woman apparently had broken free that day and contacted her mother, saying she was going to kill herself because she couldn't bear to be locked up anymore, police said. It's not clear why she didn't call 911 herself. Police arrived and found both the man and woman in the apartment. Allowed to go to work The woman told police she met Hopkins online, and he bought her a one-way ticket to New York City on Feb. 4. He met her at the airport, and the two took a taxi to his apartment in the East Williamsburg section of Brooklyn. Once inside, according to court documents, he told her she was going to be his slave. Hopkins forced her to call him "master" and let her leave only to go to work, the documents said. She had a job as a chef at a restaurant on Manhattan's Upper East Side, and she left at least once but for some reason returned, authorities said, though it's not clear why. When she did, she was handcuffed again. During the eight days, she was blindfolded, gagged and repeatedly raped and forced to perform oral sex, according to court documents. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/41620089/ns/us_news-crime_and_courts/ Yet, she wasnt bound, tied or handcuffed when they found her. This story contradicts the earlier ones. As far as rectal hemorrhaging and bruising. Hemorrhoids can cause that. Im not making light of the situation, I'm saying things are not adding up Rectal Hemorrhaging can be caused by hemorrhoids, however, it can also be caused by a violent sexual assault. You asked for evidence of her being "traumatized", she had bruises, she had Rectal Hemorrhaging. Causation will need to be established by her Physicians or other Medical Experts, we do not know the severity of her injuries at this point. I think this man was doing her great harm, although she may have consented initially. Things do not add up, however, it is possible she phoned her mother as opposed to 9-1-1 or seeking out the police because she was certain her mother would listen (and follow up) while the police might have given her short shrift. Jeffrey Dahmer murdered a boy who was actually returned to him by the police. In any event we'll see how this plays out at trial. If Hopkin's isn't convicted at the State level I think Federal Law will see him behind bars.
