New Bedford, Massachusetts - David Rahman and Eli Smith, both 20-year-old Massachusetts men, were arrested for allegedly recording themselves beating their mentally disabled roommate then posting the video on YouTube.
According to the New Bedford police Department, Smith and Rahman were squatters in a foreclosed home, when they assaulted a 23-year-old disabled man, who lived in the same house.
Investigators say the video, which has been removed from the Internet, shows the victim being dragged into a room, where he was held on the ground and was punched, kicked, burned with a lighter and sexually assaulted. The victim also sustained lacerations that required him to get stitches under his eye.
Rahman, who reportedly recorded the incident, can be heard in the video taunting the victim and telling Smith that he was going to be famous.
Smith and Rahman are both charged with rape, kidnapping and multiple counts of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon.
Ah good old NEW BEIGE... I'm pumped for the Maderia Feast!!
