Santana suggested that after the 34-year-old dancer's shift ended at Flamingo Showgirls, she meet him at a gas station. Upon arrival, she was escorted by Santana into a nearby alley, where he beat the shit out of her. He then drove her in her car to a second location, where he raped her.
As Santana later tried to check them into a Long Beach motel, the woman managed to alert the front-desk clerk that she had been assaulted. Santana then high-tailed it for her car and sped off. Police investigators followed the evidence trail to Santana's home, where a few days after the assault they found a pair of bloody shoes and the dancer's car keys.
Santana pleaded guilty to kidnapping, sexual assault and auto theft.
