According to the arrest report, Robinson's kidney was bruised and his right arm was broken when police arrived. It also looked like his hands and wrists had been tied up, the report says. 

He had reported similar injuries to police three years ago and initially blamed his caregiver at the time, but during the investigation, police said he recanted his story. 

Reid told police she had not seen Robinson for three days, until she found him on the porch at his home on Taylor Avenue covered in dry blood and wearing disheveled clothes.

She brought him inside to get some rest.
