Man who raped, tortured mental health therapist pleads guilty
The horrific events happened in July 2022, when Allswang's mental health therapist arrived at his parents' Boca Raton home for a session. She was held against her will for 15 hours, as Allswang raped, beat and tortured her at knifepoint.
When deputies arrived, Allswang was holding a knife and would not comply with officer demands to drop it. He was subsequently shot in the head, but survived.
