He emphasized the need for thorough investigation despite the challenges posed by the lack of distinctive identifiers among the perpetrators. Chamberlain detailed the brutal methods used, including beating and serious injuries such as stabbing, indicating the severity of the assault on the victims.
Following the five-hour ordeal at the Edge at Lowry complex, the male and female victims of the torture attempted to keep a low profile as they were threatened by their assailants. They were eventually released after being coerced into silence about the incident. Once freed, they reached out for help without delay, showcasing the psychological and physical torment they endured during the incident, which was referred to as a product of organized crime in the community.
