The wife of a Westminter police detective accused of raping an Ontario Mills waitress has granted an interview to a local TV news station.

Tracy Orban, wife of accused rapist Anthony Orban, said in an interview with KTLA that her husband has no memory of the alleged kidnapping in April and subsequent rape.

Tracy Orban and other supporters of Anthony Orban believe two anti-depressant medications he was taking may have contributed to his actions and his memory loss.

"There's no denying what happened," Tracy Orban said in the interview broadcast Wednesday. "Something happened to his brain."

Prosecutors have charged Anthony Orban and an alleged aider and abettor -- former California Institution for Men guard Jeff Jelinek -- with numerous felonies that could result in life prison sentences for both men.

Anthony Orban is accused of kidnapping the 25-year-old waitress at gunpoint, then sexually and physically assaulting her for more than in hour in Fontana in the woman's car.

After the alleged assault, Anthony Orban called his wife and asked her to meet him in Ontario.

"He had called me," Tracy Orban told KTLA. "He doesn't have any recollection of calling me. I show up and he looked drugged. He absolutely looked drugged."

Tracy Orban said she knew something was wrong when Ontario police asked her husband for identification.

"My biggest thing is what happened to him I don't want to happen to somebody else," she told the news station.

Here is KTLA's report on Orban's case:

It's very telling that she is only concerned about her husband (herself) and not the women that was brutally raped for two hours. "My biggest thing is what happened to him I don't want to happen to somebody else" This plea is a crock and may the Orbans' burn in hell and both be brutally raped along the way.

You're right, Dan.
Hey Tracy? What about what your husband's VICTIM went through? Do you have no concern for her? For her family?
You don't really believe the crap your husband told you, do you? How naïve are you?!
