EXCELSIOR SPRINGS, Mo. — A former Patoka man has been arrested in Missouri for allegedly holding a woman prisoner in his basement for weeks and repeatedly raping her.

Timothy M. Haslett Jr., now of Excelsior Spring, Missouri, was arrested Friday and charged with first-degree rape or attempted rape, first-degree kidnapping and second-degree assault.

The woman was found early Friday. A probable cause statement says she was able to escape when the suspect took his child to school. Police say they’re trying to determine if there have been other victims.

The woman was reportedly found wearing a tight metal collar around her neck and repeatedly told a rescuer Haslett had killed her friends.

Charging documents say she was held captive in a basement room for about a month and was raped repeatedly before she was able to escape.
