A 77-year-old man, James D. Allen has been arrested for raping a 20-year-old woman who posted her attack on Snapchat, police said.
Allen from Ohio was charged with one count of rape after investigators viewed the social media video, said Ottawa County Prosecutor James VanEerten. The suspect is being held on a $1 million bond.
According to Inside Edition, police were called to a residence for a welfare check early Tuesday morning. Everything seemed to be alright at the time. However, later in the morning, people as far away as Texas who had viewed the victim’s Snapchat video began notifying the police that a sexual assault may have occurred at the residence, and the video was forwarded to the authorities.
Based on the video content, which a detective involved with the arrest said was very “clear,” the 77-year-old was arrested.
The county prosecutor said that he wasn’t sure why the victim made the recording, but that it could have been to create a record.
“It’s obviously horrific, but at least it allowed us to put a stop to the situation and make a quick arrest in this case,” he said.
