Forensic Interview Reveals Disturbing Details

According to documents provided by White County Sheriff’s Office, during a forensic interview, the alleged juvenile victim indicated that Bishop had caused her harm. The child identified specific injuries on anatomical drawings, pointing to areas on both female and male figures to describe the assault.

Detective Blake Ellis attempted to interview Bishop but was advised of his potential mental delay. Bishop’s legal guardian was present, but the interview was cut short as Bishop struggled with understanding his rights.

The interview raised concerns about the role of Bishop’s guardian, who was not assisting effectively during the process. This led to the immediate termination of the interview by Detective Ellis.

The affidavit for the warrant details the charge against Bishop for one count of ACA 5-14-103 Rape, a felony. The document requests the issuance of an arrest warrant for Bishop, born on July 25, 2000.
