The mother of a woman she says was held captive for four days shared what her daughter experienced.
“I saw this person that I didn’t recognize. Her face was twice its normal size,” said Jessi Barham.
A convicted kidnapper, William Mozingo, is accused of holding Chloe Jones against her will in Akron.
Police body camera video captured the moment of his arrest and her rescue.
“I love you, Chloe,” said William Mozingo in handcuffs.
Mozingo uttered those words before police took him to jail.
Moments earlier, police broke down a door and rescued Jones from a garage. She is seen on video carefully crawling down a ladder from a plywood platform.
Barham says Mozingo beat her daughter with a baseball bat and his fists and threatened to slit her throat.
“He doused her in gasoline and was threatening to catch her on fire,” Barham said. Jones didn’t feel comfortable yet speaking on camera about what happened.
Her mother shared a picture of Chloe before and showed News 5 photos of her blackened eyes swollen shut.
