Two men accused of kidnapping and sexually assaulting a 14-year-old girl face federal charges for production of child pornography after they admitted to recording the sexual assault on a phone.
Both men admitted to having sexual intercourse with the 14-year-old and recording it on their phones.
The U.S. attorney’s office for the Northern District of Texas announced that Vincent Thompson, 40, and Lukumond Olatunji, 43, were arrested on Wednesday and charged with the production of child pornography and aiding and abetting child pornography, according to a report by The Dallas Morning News.
According to an earlier report by The Dallas Express, the two suspects pulled up to the 14-year-old girl, who was walking home from school and offered her a lift on October 23.
The 14-year-old, still wearing her school uniform when both men kidnapped her, told investigators that she thought they were taking her to her grandmother’s house.
However, the two men drove her to an alley where they sexually assaulted the 14-year-old girl.
Thompson and Olatunji later drove the victim to a nearby motel, where they sexually assaulted her again.
The 14-year-old escaped the men and ran to a nearby gas station, where officers found her. Responding officers immediately drove to the motel, where they arrested both men.
According to CBS 11 News, Olatunji initially denied sexually assaulting the 14-year-old but identified her as “the girl that Vincent picked up.” He later admitted to having sexual intercourse with the victim.
Thompson identified the victim as “the girl we picked up in South Dallas.” He admitted to having sexual intercourse with the 14-year-old and recording it on his phone.
