A University of Central Florida student accused of rape allegedly told the victim that he “just really wanted to have sex,” a police affidavit revealed Friday.
Jamie Polanco, 21, was arrested at a student apartment complex on the UCF campus Friday and was charged with sexual battery after a recorded phone call between he and the victim appeared to show him confessing to a June assault, FOX 35 reported.
Polanco and the victim were watching a basketball game in his bedroom at the Knights Krossing Apartments complex on June 10 when police say he tried to have sex with the victim.

A police affidavit obtained by the Orlando Sentinel revealed that the victim only told police about the alleged attack Thursday after Polanco reportedly showed up at their door. The victim told police that Polanco covered their peephole but fled before officers arrived.
In a phone call recorded by police, the victim spoke to Polanco about the June 10 assault where he reportedly confessed to forcing himself on them despite remembering “you saying no.”
“I guess I just really wanted to have sex,” Polanco told the victim according to the affidavit. “I do remember having sex and I do remember you saying no.”
