A man has been arrested in the US for allegedly luring his 15-year-old girlfriend from Mexico, turning her into a sex slave and then letting their baby die.
Authorities say Domingo Salazar, from New York, is an illegal Mexican immigrant who brought in several women from Mexico and forced them to become prostitutes, the New York Post reports. The 33-year-old began a relationship with the young teen while he was in Mexico and paid a people smuggler to bring her to the US in 2007.
When the girl arrived at his home in Brooklyn she gave birth to their baby.
Salazar then allegedly began forcing the girl to work as a prostitute, making her have sex with up to 15 clients a day.
Police say Salazar and his wife regularly beat the girl, sometimes with a brick.
The girl's baby became sick in January last year but Salazar allegedly refused to let her take the child to a hospital.
The baby died and Salazar is accused of making the grieving mother put the infant's body in a bucket which was then filled over with cement and hidden in a backyard shed.
The girl is now in protective custody.
