In Maryland, USA - where he now lives - he goes by Eric Isaiah Kusi Boateng.Former partners say Adusah went by different names and ages.Lynne, who had what she describes as an emotionally abusive relationship with him, knew him only as "Daniel" until another woman contacted her.She didn't know he was a preacher.The woman who contacted Lynne, and another former partner, told us they would later warn Charmain about Adusah too.Another partner, Emily, not her real name, says Adusah controlled every aspect of her life."He gradually, very slowly, started to change," she says."My hair needed to be styled a certain way, I had to be dressed in a certain way, everything had to be strictly how he said it had to be."He controlled her phone, her money, her clothes, her eating habits."Her happiness was controlled by him. It wasn't a relationship. It was just him dictating her life."Linda, Charmain's mum, also claims to have witnessed signs of domestic violenceCharmain's mother also claims to have witnessed signs of domestic violence.While cutting Charmain's hair, Linda says she discovered bald patches she says were inflicted by Adusah." I was brushing the back of her hair and when I lifted her hair up. There was all bald patches at the back. I say, 'why have you got bald patches in your hair Charmain and on your skull?'," Linda says.At first her daughter was reluctant to say more, Linda says, before eventually claiming her husband pulled her hair."I said, 'why is he pulling your hair'? And of course, my voice was getting louder and I was getting angry," Linda says.
