The victim stated that on February 14, 2014 he picked up Hamilton from down the street and took her back to his apartment where they spent the day and night together.
The victim told police that on February 15, 2014 when he exited his apartment he realized Hamilton had fled with his SUV. “I checked my bedroom dresser where I left the keys and they were gone,” he told police.
After Hamilton was located in possession of the vehicle, she denied stealing SUV.
According to reports, while Hamilton was being questioned by Officer Barry Hamilton yelled to the victim, “We f***ed last night, you F***ed me.”
