On Sunday, Feb. 14, Ojo allegedly followed the 21-year-old woman out of a movie at the Cinemark Theater about 70 miles north of Columbus. Police say he stalked her in the bathroom, then forced her into an empty movie theater where he raped her.

Ojo's wife helped police catch her husband because she was suspicious that he left the theatre more than once. The wife told police at one point Ojo sat behind the 21-year-old woman in the movie theater and she came up to him and asked him what he was doing.

Police told Crimesider that Ojo was not surprised at all when he was arrested. In fact, he had no reaction at all.

The man is charged with rape and kidnapping.

The alleged victim told Fox 8 News, "The thing that makes me the most sick about it, is that he went and sat back down like nothing had happened." "I want to feel like me, I don't feel like me," the woman told Fox. "You don't react. You don't know what to do."

"It's a very horrific crime, in my eyes," Ontario, Ohio Police Chief Rodney Smith told the channel.

Chief Smith told Crimesider Ojo is in jail on a one million dollar bond.
