Following an investigation, charges were sought against Buffkin for:
- felony second-degree kidnapping
- misdemeanor crime of domestic violence
- misdemeanor interference with emergency communication
- misdemeanor communicating threats
- misdemeanor assault on a female
The magistrate found probable cause to issue a warrant for arrest.
