He was a few years older and seemed charming. They soon began dating and after a few months she moved in with his family in a tiny town called Tenancingo that is notorious for sex trafficking.
All she knew was that she had problems with her parents and her boyfriend promised a happier future. Vaguely offering marriage, he suggested they sneak across the border into Arizona and make money for their new life together. For the next three and a half years he forced Maria to service men, sometimes as many as 30 a day, in commercial gang bangs in suburban homes.

He forced her to swallow multiple forms of contraception so that menstruation would never cause her to lose a day of work. Her private parts grew so torn and infected that she had to apply anesthetics. Meanwhile, Maria's pimp threatened to kill her sister back in Mexico if Maria went to the police.
