Convicted felon abducts, sexually abuses two college students after they miss curfew and are locked out of campus: cops

Nov. 12--A convicted felon abducted two Christian college students and forced them to perform sex acts on each other after they were locked out of their Missouri campus.

The College of the Ozarks students had fallen asleep in their vehicle in a parking lot near the Point Lookout school after missing curfew on the early morning of Oct. 29, according to charging documents obtained by the Springfield News-Leader.

Robert Hyslop, who was armed, smashed the window of their car when he could not wake them up, according to the newspaper. Investigators say the 49-year-old Hyslop forced the man and woman to drive to a highway lookout where they were forced to perform sex acts. Hyslop is also accused of making the woman touch him sexually.

The students drove Hyslop back to his vehicle as ordered, and then alerted authorities.

They told investigators that they had arrived to campus 10 minutes after the 1 a.m. curfew. However, school officials told the newspaper that students can call a 24-hour security line to to have someone unlock the gate.

The entrance, called the Gates of Opportunity, reopened at 5 a.m.

Hyslop, still on probation following a 2017 drug case, said he had been high on methamphetamine for three days when he attacked the students, according to the News-Leader. Kidnapping, sexual abuse and sodomy charges were filed against him last week.
