Boyle, 35, has pleaded not guilty to a number of criminal charges for alleged offences against Coleman, including assault, sexual assault and unlawful confinement. At one point, she drew similarities between his alleged behaviour and what she said she endured at the hands of their Taliban-linked hostage takers. He told her he wanted to try anal sex, something she refused but which he insisted was his right. Then Boyle allegedly knocked her to the floor and ordered her to go to the bedroom and remove her clothes. Lying naked on the bed, Coleman recalled trying to silently wiggle her wrists enough to loosen the rope.
