>> FROM THE LOCAL STATION NEWSFOURJAX. >> MONTHS AFTER THIS VIDEO
WENT VIRAL ON TIKTOK. A NAME
IS STAFF SERGEANT CASES SUCH
ANNICK AND TODAY MARKS 8
MONTHS SINCE I’VE BEEN RATE
THE NEWS FOR JAX’S. I TEAM HAS
LEARNED AN ALLEGATION OF
ASSAULT AMONG TO LOCAL SERVICE
MEMBERS WILL NOT BE
PROSECUTED.
>> MEETING. BUT THE STATE
ATTORNEY.
>> TO DO.
>> STAFF SERGEANT CASEY SUE CHENIK WENT PUBLIC WITH THE ALLEGATIONS ON TIKTOK EARLIER
THIS YEAR. THAT VIDEO NOW HAS
NEARLY 7 MILLION VIEWS. 10
MONTHS AFTER A SERVICE MEMBER
WAS CHARGED WITH 2 COUNTS OF
BATTERY IN AFTER
INVESTIGATING. THE STATE
ATTORNEY’S OFFICE HAS DECIDED
DECLINED TO MOVE FORWARD WITH
THE CASE NEWS 4 JAX CITING
INVESTIGATOR IN MAXWELL HAS
BEEN FOLLOWING THIS STORY AND
>> TAR. JOY, WE GOT THIS
REPORT FROM THE STATE
ATTORNEY’S OFFICE. IT SAYS THE
EVIDENCE AND TO CHANTIX TATE
MUNTZ DON’T LINE UP BUT SUCH
ANNEX AS HER STORY HASN’T
CHANGED AND SHE STILL WANTS
HER DAY IN COURT.
>> GOING. I HAVE GIVEN
>> IT’S BEEN NEARLY A YEAR
SINCE STAFF SERGEANT CASEY
SUCH ANNEX AS SHE WAS RAPED BY
A FELLOW SERVICE MEMBER GOING
VIRAL. AND THIS VIDEO IN JUNE
ABSOLUTELY HAD IT. AND
BREAKING POINT EARLIER THIS
YEAR TO CHANT HOLD THE THE
STATE ATTORNEY’S OFFICE WAS
PREPARED TO DROP THE 2 COUNTS
OF BATTERY AGAINST HER ALLEGED
ASSAILANT. IF SHE DIDN’T
ACCEPT A PLEA DEAL FOR HIM ON
A SIMPLE BATTERY CHARGE, IT
WAS A DEAL. SHE SAID SHE
COULDN’T ACCEPT. LAST WEEK SHE
LEARNED THE CHARGES WOULD BE
DROPPED. ACCORDING TO THIS
STATEMENT FROM THE STATE
ATTORNEY’S CHENIK INITIALLY
REPORTED THE ENCOUNTER BN
CONSENSUAL E THEN PROSECUTORS
SAY SHE CHANGED HER TESTIMONY
TO SAY THE ENTIRE ENCOUNTER
WAS NOT CONSENSUAL. AND THEN
CHANGED HER STORY BACK AGAIN.
AND I’VE ALWAYS STOOD SURE TO
SAYING I DID START CONSENSUAL.
A STATE ATTORNEY’S OFFICE SAYS
WITNESSES REPORTED SHE, QUOTE,
WENT INTO THE BEDROOM
WILLINGLY AND WITHOUT FORCE
BOTH TIMES AND THAT THEY
DIDN’T HEAR ANYTHING UNUSUAL
COMING FROM THE ROOM WHERE SHE
SAYS SHE WAS BEATEN AND
SLAMMED INTO A WALL. SUCH
ANNEX AS THOSE WITNESSES HAVE
CONFLICTS OF INTEREST. SO ONE
WITNESS SAYS A FEW MAO.
>> WHO IS ACTIVE DUTY AIR
FORCE AND SHOES APPARENTLY
BEST FRIENDS MY RAPE SHE WAS
THERE FOR THE WEEK. SO I
BELIEVE THAT SHE WOULD SAY
ANYTHING TO KEEP HIM SAFE. THE
SECOND ONE IS THE MAN THAT I
CALLED MY FRIEND. I DON’T HAVE
ANY PROBLEMS WITH HIM, BUT HE
IS, I BELIEVE VERY AFRAID OF
BEING PULLED INTO THIS HAVING
TO TESTIFY HAVING LOOK MYRA
BUS AND KNIVES AND SPEAK THE
TRUTH. HE WAS THE FIRST WANT
TO ASK ME YOU’RE NOT GOING TO
REPORTER. ARE YOU? HE HAD TOLD
ME THAT MY RIGHT BUS WAS A
YEAR. A SUPERIOR TO HIM OF
SOME SORT AND ALSO SAYS YOU
DID NOT SUFFER INJURIES
CONSISTENT WITH YOUR
ALLEGATIONS. THAT’S WHAT I’M
TALKING ABOUT WITH THE BRUISES
NOT BEING DARK THEY SAID THAT
THERE WASN’T ENOUGH EVIDENCE.
>> AFTER HAVE PROVIDED A RAPE
KIT, PHOTOS OF MY RIB DON’T
SHARE YOURS IS.
>> MY CLOTHING. STATE
ATTORNEY’S OFFICE SAYS A
GOFUNDME SET UP FOR HER IN THE
WAKE OF THE ALLEGATIONS WOULD
BE ARGUED IS EVIDENCE THAT SHE
HAD A FINANCIAL MOTIVE TO
FABRICATE THE ALLEGATIONS TO
CHANTIX AS A GOFUNDME THAT
RAISED ABOUT $3,000 TO HELP OR
HIRE A PRIVATE ATTORNEY HAS
BEEN SHUT DOWN AND THE MONEY
WAS RETURNED. THE STATE
ATTORNEY’S OFFICE ALSO SAYS TO
CHANA TOLD WITNESSES SHE ASKED
THE MAN TO HIT HER. I WAS
LOSING HEARING IN MY LEFT EAR.
>> AND HE KEPT SAYING TO ME,
HEY, YOU TELL ME TO HIT YOU.
LIKE I SAID, YOU DON’T KNOW
WHAT YOU’RE GOING TO DO IN
THOSE MOMENTS. AND I DIDN’T
KNOW WHAT COULD HAPPEN IF I
DIDN’T DO WHAT HE WAS ASKING
OF ME. THE REPORT SAYS MOST
PROBLEMATIC IS THAT SUCH TRIED
TO PRESSURE A WITNESS TO
PROVIDE FALSE INFORMATION,
WHICH COULD HURT HER
CREDIBILITY. SHE SAYS THAT
WITNESS WAS A FORMER BEST
FRIEND WHO SHE HAD A FALLING
OUT WITH. SHE LITERALLY SIDE.
>> SHE WANTED ME TO LIE ABOUT
WORKING WITH HER VOLK FIELD.
>> IT’S A MILITARY BASE IN
WISCONSIN AND I JUST DIDN’T
FEEL COMFORTABLE DOING THAT.
YOU ASKED HER TO SAY ANYTHING
ABOUT THEM? NO, I NEVER ASKED
HER TO SAY WEREN’T EXCEPT FOR
GIVE THEM THE TEXT SHE SAYS
THOSE TEXT MESSAGES
CORROBORATE HER STORY BUT WERE
NEVER TURNED OVER. THE STATE
CHAN IT HASN’T COOPERATED WITH
THEIR INVESTIGATION REPEATEDLY
FAILING TO RESPOND TO THEM OR
TAKING A LONG TIME TO RESPOND.
THAT’S PART OF PTSD.
>> IF THEY’VE DONE ANY
RESEARCH WITH PTSD, AVOIDANCE
IS A HUGE.
>> HE SAID THAT SUCH ANNEX AS
SHE FEELS FAILED BY THE
PROCESS.
♪
PROCESS. ♪ >> YOU DUVAL COUNTY FOR
JUDICIAL CIRCUIT AM NOT
LOOKING FOR ATTENTION. I’M NOT
LOOKING FOR INTERNET FAME. I’M
LOOKING FOR LITERAL JUSTICE.
>> THE MAN’S SEARCH ANNICK IS
