A man who was arrested for allegedly kidnapping a teenager and repeatedly raping her in his basement had been previously arrested 52 times, according to Illinois police.
Cook County prosecutors said 48-year-old Derek Swift drove up to the 15-year-old girl on Dec. 6 while she was walking to her home in Chicago.
The girl said that he kept asking her if she wanted a ride until she relented and got into his car. Once inside the car, she was allegedly pressured to drink alcohol and take drugs until she agreed and then went unconscious.
She said that she awoke naked in the man's basement apartment and was kept against her will for nearly five months while she was repeatedly sexually assaulted by Swift. She hit her 16th birthday while being allegedly held captive.
The victim said she was left alone by her captor for days at a time and although he left a phone with her, she said he threatened to kill her if she tried to leave and also to kill anyone she tried to call with the phone.
She only called the police after being able to find the address of the apartment from a piece of mail on April 29.
Assistant State’s Attorney Anne McCord said that police rescued the girl and saw on the phone that it was only used to make calls between her and Swift.
Swift's defense attorney asked why the girl didn't simply leave the situation, but McCord answered that she had been allegedly threatened and beaten by Swift for trying to escape twice.

Yeah, I get that you have to defend your client, but that was a deplorable thing to ask

Black privilege. 52 arrests. And was still free.
There were j6ers who were eventually charged with a misdemeanor, it was the only arrest on their record.... and they were imprisoned for years just waiting for a charge and trial.

This is a case of why you should never ask a question unless you know the answer.

It seems the only publicized crimes anymore are when some White kid makes monkey sounds.

Not profiling or in the wrong place at the wrong time after 52 separate arrests
You’re just a menace to society and need to be put down

Her only peace was when he had to leave to play midnight basketball.

WTH are they teaching kids these days?
Or was she *slow*? Serious question. I find it hard to believe any 15 yr old would 'relent' and accept a ride from a total stranger. THEN drink & take drugs.

Just kill him. You can't rehab evil like that.
