The victim stated that as soon as they arrived at his apartment, he attempted to have sex with her, but she denied him.
Court documents stated that when she denied Mills, he immediately began to physically assault her by using a closed fist and wouldn't let her leave the apartment. He would also bite her on the neck and face.
The victim also reported to authorities that when Mills' hands got tired from hitting her, he would grab a screwdriver and would strike her with the handle of the screwdriver.
Authorities said Mills also didn't provide any food or water for the five days she was kept against her will.
