The heinous act reportedly took place on Thursday, May 25, 2023, at the Shelby Bottoms Nature Center public park in Nashville. The suspect identified as Ryean Floyd allegedly r*ped a woman who he met after a year in the park. As planned, the victim and suspect met in a park in Nashville, and the victim stated that she had to leave. She went to her vehicle and kept her child in the backseat of the car.

According to the audio recording that captured the entire crime in the Nashville park, the assault lasted for about five minutes. The recording also captured the child crying in the background during the assault.

Floyd faces r*pe and kidnapping charges in connection to the allegations against him
Police are yet to determine the relationship between the suspect and the victim. A few residents from around the Nashville public park claimed that such an incident isn't shocking in the area. A mother named Monique Becker told WSMV:
“I always lock my doors and stay alert. Monitor who is around me. I don’t let people get too close. Like 10 feet and then I start looking behind me and start thinking of contingency plans should they do anything that’s in my bubble.”

Meanwhile, another resident identified as Grayson Perkins had a conflicting opinion and said:
“I’ve come out here several times and always felt very safe. This whole community feels very safe. You see kids walking to school, you see women jogging at night. I think it is a travesty what happened.”
Law enforcement officials took Floyd into custody on Friday and he faces kidnapping and r*pe charges. If convicted, he could face almost 90 years in jail. Ryean Floyd is currently being held on a bond of $65,000 and his court appearance has been scheduled for June 12, 2023.
