The Father's Use of a Match in a Sexual Assault Case

The daughter who was sexually assaulted and she can't identify him either. The only thing she says is that he was there and his light that he used was a match, which seems chancy to me. It must have been really dark to fight with someone that close. But I guess if you're adrenaline's going and you're scared and somebody is attacking you, then maybe you're not concentrating on details like face.
