The Dow Jones industrial average added nearly 192 points to end at an all-time high of 14,087.55 points on Monday amid hopes that banks have put the worst of the recent 'credit crunch' behind them and expectations that the Federal Reserve will continue to cut interest rates.
   Todd Allen, a Las Vegas resident, told CNN he once lived with the girl from the video and her mother. He said he recognizes his old apartment from scenes in the video. He said he knows the suspect because Allen's mother dated Stiles and the couple spent time together at Allen's apartment. Watch Allen describe Stiles and the girl »
 In Asia on Tuesday, Tokyo's Nikkei 225 gained 200 points to close up 1.19 percent at 17,047, its highest finish since August 9. Technology companies Sony (4.2 percent) and Canon (2.6 percent) and automakers Nissan (3 percent) were among the biggest gainers.
 "The Nikkei appears to be in a gradual uptrend now," Nobuyuki Nagamorim, a technical analyst at Unimat Yamamaru Securities, told The Associated Press.
 While handcuffed, the New Yorker became "disruptive" and she was taken to a holding room, where she was left alone, Hill told CNN affiliate KTVK.
 Investigators said officers went to check on her five to 10 minutes later. Police policy requires that be done every 15 minutes.
 "You're seeing a continuation of the recent momentum," said Chris Johnson, CEO of Johnson Research Group.
 The tech-dominated Nasdaq also gained 1.5 percent for its highest close since February 2001 while the S&amp;P 500 gained 1.3 percent.
 "The mother has cooperated with us," De Meo said. "We believe that the mother was not aware of anything that went on with this young girl. It was very sad for her to find this out." 
 A spokeswoman for the Maricopa County medical examiner said an autopsy would be conducted Monday morning.
 "But I have seen him verbally and mentally assault many people," Allen told CNN. "He's good with mind games. He's good at twisting people's realities and manipulating people."
 Stiles was a distant friend of the girl's family, De Meo said. 
 "According to investigators, it appeared as though Ms. Gotbaum had possibly tried to manipulate the handcuffs from behind her to the front, got tangled up in the process, and they ended up around her neck area," he said.
 "It becomes a psychological phenomenon. Investors know that there are inherent risks in the market, but at the same time, they're rationalizing any bad news."
 Allen said nobody realized the child had been abused.
 Finding Gotbaum "unconscious and not breathing," Hill said, officers performed CPR. 
 "Sometime during the time she went into custody, she went into medical distress," he said.
 Gotbaum was the mother of three young children and the daughter-in-law of longtime New York City Public Advocate Betsy Gotbaum. 
(CNN)  -- Darren Tuck, the man who gave police a tape depicting the rape of a 3-year-old girl, turned himself in Sunday to Nye County, Nevada, authorities.
 CNN and other news organizations did so until the child was found, and De Meo asked media to stop showing the picture. 
 Betsy Gotbaum called Carol Ann Gotbaum "a wonderful, wonderful person" and a great mother. She said the family was dealing with the situation "the best way we can."
