One of the assailants wore a 'Scream' mask as they repeatedly threatened to kill the couple and when the woman told them she was pregnant, they held a gun to her stomach and said, 'You're going



The complaint says that while the couple struggled to sleep about 5am, the male victim, who is legally blind without his glasses, noticed the bedroom door was open and shouldn't have been.

'Is someone here?' the man called out from bed. A suspect then turned on the bedroom light and three men burst into the room demanding money.

'Someone's gonna die tonight,' one suspect said, according to the complaint. One suspect was allegedly wearing a mask from the movie 'Scream'.

The female victim told the three men repeatedly that she was pregnant, and that the men could take what they wanted from the house.

Reports say Hughes pulled the male victim from bed, laid him on his back and began hitting him in the face with a gun and punching and kicking his body.

'Co-conspirators': Police say the group made the plan at DeMarco Mallit's (left) apartment. They went there in a car rented by DeAndrae Mayweathers Jr., right, who said he didn't want to be involved in the robbery



Another suspect pulled the woman from bed and ordered her to lie on her stomach in the hallway, the report says. A suspect allegedly took a handgun and put it to the woman's stomach, saying, 'You're going to die tonight.'

All three men are accused of sexually assaulting the woman, and one is accused of forcing her to perform oral sex.

After putting the couple in a darkened laundry room, the complaint says the men left with electronics and the couple's credit cards and wedding rings.

The complaint says the men left in a rented Ford Fusion driven by DeAndrae L. Mayweathers Jr., who was charged with conspiracy to commit armed robbery.

The victims ran to a neighbor's house for help, the man with what's described in the report as a baseball-sized contusion to his head and the woman bleeding from the assault.

Police said after interviewing neighbors that the alleged assailants planned a 'lick' on a man believed to carry large sums of money, but struck the wrong house.

'In my 27-plus years of policing in Madison, this is probably one of the most disturbing and heinous crimes I have ever seen,' interim Madison police Chief Randy Gaber said, the Wisconsin State Journal reported.

After the robbery, Neumaier aroused the man's suspicions when she told a police officer that he might have been the intended target, according to the criminal complaint.



He then searched Neumaier's Facebook account, where he allegedly found messages about the plot.



Neumaier has been charged with conspiracy to commit armed robbery.

A fifth man, DeMarco D. Mallit, has been charged with theft and aiding a felon. Investigators said the robbery was planned at his apartment.

Police said Mayweathers' girlfriend told them he wanted to drive the car because it was rented in his name, but that 'he did not want to be involved in (the robbery).'

Julie Foley, who manages victim and witness services for the district attorney's office, said they have provided support to the couple since the harrowing ordeal.
