The females told the authorities they were held inside a room with the lights off in the home. One of the women had to urinate in a closet because Frazier would not let them out to use the bathroom, according to one of the victims.

Frazier was charged with three counts of aggravated assault and three counts of aggravated kidnapping. He is being held in the local jail at this time. His court date has been set for January 6, 2015. The subject also faces charges for jumping bail and failing to appear in court.
