In addition, Wilson allegedly held a knife to her 1-year-old son's throat while on FaceTime.
The woman also reportedly told authorities that Wilson forced her to continue to have sex with men even after she learned she had a miscarriage.
On Sept. 26, the woman used ChatGPT to create a fake email that said she needed to return a rental car at Kansas City International Airport, the affidavit said. Once there, she contacted police and family who came to her rescue.
The victim was reportedly suffering from several injuries and "appeared emotionally distressed and defeated during the entire interview" with investigators.
Wilson remains in the Platte County Jail without bond.
