In an April 20 interview, the woman told the detective she was molested by Amor when she was 12 to 15 years of age, at a home in Willmar. She had kept it secret, blamed herself and thought if she kept quiet, the other girls would be OK.

The woman said Amor told her he was just trying to teach her about the "birds and the bees," safe sex and what boys would do to please her so that she could tell them not to. The molestation included sexual touching and digital penetration, according to the complaint.
