A polygamist woman, Martina Jones, her husband, and four male partners were arrested for kidnapping and torturing a 26-year-old man for a week. They allegedly assaulted him in a Maumee hotel room as revenge following an incident involving a dog fight. The victim suffered severe physical abuse, including being beaten with a baseball bat and enduring restricted eating and sleeping conditions. He was only rescued when he managed to escape briefly and contact his mother, prompting police intervention.
"He was being essentially tortured, assaulted, over the time frame of a week," Maumee Chief of Police Josh Sprow told the outlet.
"His injuries were results of being struck with a baseball bat, struck with fists, elbows, stomping on him when he was on the ground - which over time resulted in multiple fractured bones."
"Jones ordered her deviant beaus to abduct the victim on March 14 and carry out the nightmarish scheme as retribution following a scuffle at her home."
"When she was contacted by this literally a stranger - she knew something was wrong."
