A Florida woman has pleaded guilty to keeping a Mexican woman captive for two years and trying to impregnate her with her boyfriend’s sperm, News 6 WKMG reports.
Esthela Clark, 47, pleaded guilty to a single count on forced labour when she appeared in federal court on Monday. She will be sentenced next month, and could face up to 20 years in prison.
According to court documents, Clark paid ‘coyotes’ US$3,000 to smuggle the 26-year-old victim – who has not been named – across the Mexican border in 2012.
