COLORADO SPRINGS – Rozita Swinton tells NEWSCHANNEL 13 that she doesn’t want to answer questions about the allegations against her. When asked, if she would like to explain to the public why these calls were made, she said, “No.”

NEWSCHANNEL 13 was able to get transcripts of video interrogations by Colorado Springs Police on the night she was arrested. In the document, her roommate Becky Hoerth tells police that the allegations against Swinton don’t surprise her, considering “Rozita’s delusions and disassociations.”

Hoerth goes on to tell police that she’s sure Swinton is on medications, “whether or not she’s taking the medication, she’s not sure.” Hoerth says she never saw Swinton call “crisis hotlines” but says, “Maybe this was going on while she was sleeping and she didn’t know.” Hoerth says Swinton hated talking on the phone, and if she did, it was inly to speak briefly to her mother.

When asked if Swinton speaks with her father, Hoerth said she does, but when he tries to contact her, she often doesn’t respond.

Swinton previously told Castle Rock Police that she was sexually molested by her father and even had a child with him. Police later determined that was a lie. She later pleaded guilty to making a false report and was given a year-long deferred sentence.

Hoerth moved in with Swinton earlier this month, and she says the first week Swinton didn’t talk. “Rozita was very much to herself and kept to herself.” It wasn’t until April 9th that Rozita started to come around, she tells police, “They started actually doing dinner together and went mountain biking.”

When the detectives left the room, Hoerth could be heard on camera saying, ” She’s going to kill me” and “I can’t lie.”

NEWSCHANNEL 13 has learned that Swinton works with an insurance company and also goes to school at Pikes Peak Community College.
