Tyler Weber, 33, was arrested on charges of first-degree sexual assault and first-degree false imprisonment after DNA results contradicted his claims that he did not assault the victim.
Weber is accused of raping the woman, who was 19 and married and had gathered with a group of people at his home to prepare for his wedding in May, a day before the nuptials.
The group had been drinking, and the victim told deputies that Weber grabbed her hand and wrist when her husband wasn’t looking. However, at some point, the rest of the group, including her husband, left the victim and Weber alone at his home.
The victim told investigators that she was feeling drunk and decided to borrow clothes and spend the night. She said that Weber followed her, grabbed her by the wrist and pinned her against the stairs before pulling her onto the couch, where he assaulted her, according to authorities.
She told investigators that he pulled down her shorts and performed a sex act as she repeatedly told him “No!”
Weber reportedly stopped the assault several times to say that he shouldn’t be doing this since his wedding was the next day. The victim also told authorities that he discussed his desire to have a threesome with her and his soon-to-be wife.

The victim said Tyler also bit her on the thigh, and a medical exam was performed shortly after the alleged assault.
The victim said that she tried to text her husband to tell him “bad things were happening” but eventually fell asleep, the report noted. She later woke up around 5:30 a.m. when the bride-to-be came downstairs, saw Weber holding the victim, and began to yell at her.
It was not immediately clear how Weber and the victim knew each other. The victim told investigators that Weber begged her “not to tell anyone what happened” as she left the home that morning.
Medical personnel performed a rape exam on the victim, collecting DNA samples. A warrant was later issued for Weber’s DNA, and he consented to the test.
Initial results did not rule out Weber. However, a more thorough DNA test, known as a Y-STR DNA test, matched his DNA, court records showed. The positive DNA match led to his arrest and charges.
