Police kept me as sex slave for nine months as baby watched, mom claims
A woman claims she was repeatedly raped by police officers in front of her newborn baby. The 29-year-old Brazilian mother alleges she was held as a sex slave in a prison cell for nine months while cops took turns abusing her. She alleges she was taken to a remote police station in Santo Antonio do Ica, in the rural state of Amazonas, and told she was being held for domestic violence against her husband. A lawyer acting for the woman, who is part of Amazonian Kokama indigenous community, said the attacks began after she was arrested. But when she was taken to the station officers threw her in a cell with male inmates and told her there was an outstanding warrant for her arrest. She then allegedly became a sex slave to the officers who systematically raped her until she was released in August 2023. The woman is now demanding nearly $90,000 in compensation from the state for the horrific abuse she suffered. According to an affidavit, the woman's ordeal was so traumatic that she tried to kill herself several times. 'The psychological damages of the gang rape committed in the presence of the newborn and during the period of imprisonment caused her permanent damage,' the document said. Additionally, the level of abuse she suffered was so physically brutal that two years later she continues to suffer from uncontrollable bleeding in the uterus, her legal team said. 'The physical pain acquired as a result of sexual violence is added to the deep psychological wound that marked the Plaintiff's soul. 'The depression, the suicide attempts inside the prison and the constant fear are silent witnesses to the barbarity suffered.' Lead attorney Dacimar de Souza Carneiro noted that the abuse happened everywhere in the station - from the cell to the kitchen and even in the weapons arsenal. 'The rapes happened at night, during shifts. In all areas of the police station. The other prisoners didn't say anything because they were also tortured.' And when she begged them not to rape her in front of her baby son, cops reportedly told her: 'We're the ones in charge here.' When she was not being raped, the document alleges that she was locked in the police station's only cell with other men and lived in constant fear of further attacks. The victim identified four military police officers and a municipal guard as the perpetrators. She was only spared when she was transferred to a women's jail in August 2023, and she told wardens about what had happened to her. The Amazonas Public Security Secretariat and the Civil Police say they are investigating her allegations.
