The two white broads were fucking around with black men and someone who
knew them saw it when they streamed bits live facetiming. They got
busted. Screaming "rape" is how liberal whores try and evade
responsibility for their poor decisions.

Family members of an 80-year-old grandmother with Alzheimer's are speaking
out about her nightmare sexual assault ordeal in the Bahamas as they seek
justice in the case.

The victim, who is from Canada, was traveling with her daughter when she
was allegedly abducted and raped by another guest at the Warwick Hotel
Paradise Island Bahamas on January 28.

Another Canadian, 61-year-old Gordon Wilkie of New Waterford, Nova Scotia,
was arrested and charged with rape in the case.

'We are dealing with the shock and are horrified at this incident,' said
the victim's son, David Ahrens, in a post on LinkedIn, sharing his
mother's smiling photo but asking that her name be withheld.

It follows a US State Department travel advisory warning of a spike in
murders in the Bahamas, and recent allegations from two Kentucky mothers
who say they were raped by staff at Pirate's Cove beach resort on Grand
Bahama.

'We have gone public to warn other travelers abroad to be so very careful
with their vulnerable loved ones and to caution that your hotel may not
act in an emergency like this,' wrote Ahrens.

Wilkie is being held without bail in the Bahamas, and his attorney did not
immediately respond to a request for comment from DailyMail.com on Friday
morning.

According to Ahrens, who has launched a GoFundMe campaign to help cover
medical and legal expenses, his mother and sister were on a short vacation
in the Bahamas when the attack unfolded.

Ahrens said that his sister and mother briefly met Wilkie during dinner at
the Warwick, but did not otherwise know him, and that the man got on the
same elevator as them when they went to return to their rooms.

His sister then became separated from her mother when she stepped off the
elevator, and the doors closed before her mother could step out.

'My Mother was always in contact with my sister who was traveling with her
and the assailant was very brazen in a literal second and stole her from
an elevator after my sister stepped off,' Ahrens wrote on LinkedIn.

Ahrens says his sister and other guests at the Warwick immediately
launched a search, but claims that hotel staff were unresponsive to their
pleas for help.

'They pleaded with the hotel to call the police, to check the security
cameras, and check the guest registry as they knew the suspect was from
Nova Scotia but the hotel refused repeatedly for 30 minutes.' Ahrens told
local news site Kawartha 411.

'The hotel is really in the crosshairs and we will probably take legal
action against them,' he added.

The Warwick Paradise Islands Bahamas did not immediately respond to a
request for comment.

Ultimately, a US Homeland Security Investigations agent who was in the
Bahamas on an assignment helped local police make an arrest.

Special Agent Tom Justice, normally based in Charlotte, joined the search
for Ahrens' mother, going floor by floor shouting her name.

After nearly 40 minutes, Justice learned Bahamian police were in the
lobby, so went to the elevator to meet them, Ahrens told WSOC-TV.

'The doors open up and there is my mother with this assailant,' Ahrens
told the outlet.

'He pinned the guy in the elevator.... Down the elevator they went to the
lobby. He pulled him out, the police took over,' he added. 'My mother was
holding her underwear.'

A hospital evaluation confirmed that the 80-year-old woman had been raped.

'My mother understood what happened. She gave a very detailed statement,'
Ahrens told Kawartha 411.

'They took her to the hospital and did a rape kit which of course came
back positive. The Bahamian Police have been exceptional at making sure
this guy was prosecuted very very quickly,' he added.

Wilkie was arrested and charged with raping the vulnerable woman in his
hotel room.

The Homeland Security Investigations field office in Charlotte issued a
statement confirming the incident and praising Agent Justice.

'HSI management is aware of the actions SA Justice undertook while on
temporary duty and are proud of the way he went above and beyond to
protect the welfare of others,' the statement said.

'His actions are in keeping with the highest standards of this agency.'

Wilkie made his first court appearance in the case on February 2, but was
not required to enter a plea, according to the Nassau Guardian.

He was denied bail, but can apply to the Supreme Court for bail
consideration.

He is set to appear on May 29 for the presentation of a voluntary bill of
indictment, which will fast-track the case to the Supreme Court for trial.
