In authorized docs, prosecutors say the alleged sufferer’s father, Colin Swift, got here to regulation enforcement Tuesday and claimed Timothy sexually abused his daughter “several years ago” at B Road Theatre. Now we all know it was 25 years in the past in 2001.
Prosecutors say the lady reported Timothy “kissed her and put his hands down her pants and touched her privates.” They are saying Timothy “begged the family to not report to law enforcement if he received therapy, Colin Swift a therapist himself thought at the time that was the best thing to do.”
