Authorities in California say they rescued a teenage girl who was trafficked into the United States by a Mexican suspect and sexually abused for months.
On Thursday, the Ventura County Sheriff’s Office (VCSO) announced a slew of charges against a 31-year-old Mexican citizen identified as Gerardo Cruz.
At around 3 a.m. on May 9, the VCSO Communication Center received a text message sent to 911 requesting help.
“The victim did not know where they were but were able to identify landmarks and other identifiable information,” VCSO explained in a press release.
“Simultaneously as the call taker was engaging with the victim, other members of the communications center team were successful in giving real time information to deputies responding to the search. After about twenty minutes of searching the area of Casitas Springs, the victim was found by deputies.”
Investigators believe Cruz trafficked his 17-year-old victim into Ventura County approximately two months ago.
He was presented before a judge on May 13 on charges of human trafficking, forcible rape, lewd acts upon a child, luring, and sexual penetration with force.
It is unclear if Cruz is in the U.S. legally.
He remains in custody on $500,000 bail.
The victim was transferred to the care of Ventura County Child Family Services until she could be reunited with her family.
