The incident began with Gipson accusing the victim\u2019s family of theft and escalated into violence when he attacked her and severely injured her 74-year-old mother-in-law, who was later found dead. After hours of brutal torture, including being hogtied and placed in a storage container, the victim managed to free herself and escape. She received assistance from a passerby who called 911. Law enforcement launched a manhunt for Gipson, who attempted to evade capture but was ultimately arrested. He now faces multiple serious charges,including murder,sexual assault,and kidnapping.

The victim&#8217;s courage in escaping has ensured that her alleged assailant will not harm anyone else.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>An ordeal that began Sunday ended with a kidnapped woman&rsquo;s desperate escape and the subsequent arrest of the career-criminal suspect.<\/p>\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fox13news.com\/news\/florida-man-accused-sexually-assaulting-woman-locking-her-storage-container-arrested\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">WTVT-TV<\/a> in Tampa Bay, Florida, a brave woman survived a violent abduction and rape, followed by hours of torture, only to escape and help lead authorities to the man who allegedly brutalized her.<\/p>\n<p>Washington County Sheriff Kevin Crews described the woman&rsquo;s condition following her escape and recovery Monday around 5:20 p.m.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;She was naked.

The torture lasted throughout the night Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;He put a rope over her neck and tucked her legs up underneath her,&rdquo; Sheriff Crews explained. &ldquo;If you can picture what a hog tie looks like, that&rsquo;s what he did to her.
