The victim alleged Thomas Reed had, on several occasions, forced her to participate or receive various forms of sexual stimulation and had encouraged her to watch pornography with him, according to the affidavit. She told police that Linda Reed had also performed sex acts on her without consent and had purchased lingerie for her so that Thomas could take pictures of her in it, documents show.
A police search of the Reeds’ home found a camera and lingerie, as well as condoms, sex toys and DVDs of pornography described by the victim, the affidavit states.
Thomas Reed first told detectives that the victim had never seen his penis, alleging that the incidents had been initiated by the victim coming on to him, according to the affidavit. Later, he recounted several instances of forced sexual acts involving him, his wife and the victim.
Linda Reed initially denied in an interview with authorities that either adult had had any sort of sexual contact with the victim but admitted to several instances of abuse in a later conversation, documents allege. Reed claimed she had memory loss which may interfere with her ability to recall the abuse. She also told detectives that their “cardinal rule” was that both adults must be present for any sexual contact.
Both Reeds told authorities they believed the victim was mentally troubled in her early teen years and claimed she was looking for attention, according to the documents.
