Family Kept Woman Locked In Closet For Six Years


I guess the very rich manage to hang on to their money because they do things like Annie George did. Annie is 39, and her husband who died last year hired a woman from India to take care of their four children. The woman was an illegal immigrant. The George family agreed to pay her $1000 a month. Instead, they paid her about half that and made her work 17 hours daily 7 days a week and kept her locked in a closet for almost six years when she was not working. A tip to the National Human Trafficking Center saw the home raided and the woman rescued. Besides facing jail time, Ms. George also owes the woman about $250,000 in back wages.
