Arrest papers shed light into alleged kidnapping, torture of woman in small Colorado town

Armed robbery suspect found hiding in car in Colorado Springs, police say

In early July, the Colorado Bureau of Investigation announced the arrests of seven people in connection with the alleged kidnapping, torture and attempted murder of a Rocky Ford woman.

According to arrest papers, the investigation started on Aug. 6, 2017, when authorities were called to an address off Highway 50 in Rocky Ford on a reported burglary in progress.

“Officer Moore was met at the front door by a female identified as [11 News is choosing not to name the victim],” part of the affidavit in the case reads. “[The victim] was completely naked and handcuffed.”

The woman told officers she had been taken from somewhere in Rocky Ford by several people and was blindfolded. She added she was burned with a curling iron and was “waterboarded” because she was labeled a snitch.

The victim told investigators she broke into the home along Highway 50 after jumping out of a moving car to get away from the people who kidnapped her.
