Police have arrested and charged a 24-year-old man over the alleged r@pe and murdr of his teenage girlfriend, who was found stripped and bound in an apartment after suffering months of torture. The body of 19-year-old Isabella Stroupe was found almost n@ked and bound with a tow strap in east Charlotte on Friday, WSCOTVs Hunter Senz reported, citing court records.
Her boyfriend, Thomaz Hamilton, 24, initially claimed the couple was having sx when she suffered a suspected heart attack, according to court documents.
But following an autopsy, the medical examiner ruled Stroupes de@th a homicide, Senz reported. She had suffered multiple broken and fractured bones and stab wounds, with the medical examiner finding that she was likely being tortured over a period of several months, court documents state. The medical examiner also ruled that Stroupe would not have been able to consent to sex. While searching the apartment, police found a bloodstained knife wrapped in cellophane, a baseball bat, a sword, and broken cell phones, along with a blood-covered mattress and clothes, Senz reported. On Tuesday, the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Departments Violent Criminal Apprehension Team arrested Hamilton and charged him with murder and rape in the first degree. Court records seen by The Post show Hamilton has a lengthy rap sheet with at least 10 arrests since 2020, including carrying a concealed weapon, resisting a public officer, and driving without insurance or registration. He is due in court next on May 27.The post Boyfriend arrested for r@pe and murdr of his teenage girlfriend appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
