On Nov. 16, Smedley reportedly tried to force a woman to have sex with him at a motel, according to the Montgomery County Prosecutor’s Office.

Later, according to an affidavit filed in Montgomery County Municipal Court Eastern Division, Smedley and the woman were in his car in the 7300 block of Rip Rap Road in Huber Heights.

Smedley reportedly refused to let her out of his vehicle and hit her several times, the affidavit said, before putting her in a choke hold.

She “was able to break free from [Smedley] as he looked for a gun that he had threatened to kill her with,” the affidavit said. She then reported jumped from the moving vehicle and ran into the woods.
