Walter Medina, 48, allegedly held a woman captive and tortured her for over two months in the Tampa, Florida, area before his arrest Tuesday.
Medina initially gave the woman food and narcotics but soon his actions turned violent, subjecting the woman to "months of relentless physical abuse and captivity," the sheriff’s office said.
Investigators said that Medina held the woman against her will for two and a half months. Medina allegedly used a wooden baseball bat and a flathead screwdriver to inflict broken ribs, deep puncture wounds and extensive bruising.
