According to the criminal complaint, the incident began when Sims picked up the victim, a former romantic partner with whom he shares a child, and drove her to a laundromat on 52nd Street. During the ride, Sims allegedly saw a message from another man on her account and became enraged. The victim told deputies that Sims used a shared phone to send a private video of her performing a sexual act to that man without her permission.
