<p>Prosecutors in Cook County, Illinois, announced charges against three 18-year-olds &#8211; Jordan Hill, Brittany Covington and Tesfaye Cooper &#8211; and 24-year-old Tanishia Covington.</p>
<p>The group have also been charged with kidnapping, aggravated unlawful restraint and assault with a deadly weapon. Three of them have additionally been accused of burglary.</p>
<p>The charges stem from an incident which lasted 48 hours and targeted a white man police described as having &#8220;mental health challenges&#8221;.</p>
<p><i>&#8220;He&#8217;s traumatised by the incident, and it&#8217;s very tough to communicate with him at this point,&#8221;</i> police commander Kevin Duffin said.</p>
<p>Excerpts of the video show the victim with his mouth taped shut slumped in a corner. He has a wound on his head, and a red band appears to be around his hands.</p>
<p>Police superintendent Eddie Johnson described the video as &#8220;sickening&#8221;, and added: <i>&#8220;It makes you wonder what would make individuals treat somebody like that.&#8221;</i></p>
<p>The investigation began on Monday after officers found a man &#8220;in distress&#8221; and &#8220;in crisis&#8221; walking on a street.</p>
<p>The man was taken to hospital, and it was later discovered that he had been reported missing from a Chicago suburb.</p>
<p>At about the same time, police took several people into custody at a nearby address where they found signs of a struggle and property damage.</p>
<p>Investigators determined that the missing man had been at the same address.</p>
