Mom and granny accused of pimping daughter

In other criminal news from the south, a Dangriga mother and grandmother are both behind bars tonight, accused of pimping out a ten year old girl. According to police, the women, who rules prohibit us from naming, appeared in court on Monday where they were formally charged with Abetment and Procuration. The Magistrate denied them bail and ordered them remanded to prison until May twenty-eighth. The child has reported that on at least three occasions, she witnessed forty-three year old Jose Hernandez give her mother money. The victim says she was then instructed to allow Hernandez to perform sexual acts with her. Hernandez was arrested on April twenty-fourth when hotel employees at a beach resort spotted him walking with the girl to a secluded spot near the sea. He has since been charged with Carnal Knowledge and was also remanded until May twenty-eighth.
