A sex slave trafficker lured a love-smitten 15-year-old girl to from Mexico to Brooklyn, turned her into a prostitute and then let their infant child die without medical care, authorities said today.

The ghoulish story emerged as federal agents raided an apartment on 40th Street in Sunset Park and removed a cement-packed bucket that is believed to hold the tiny remains of the child

Agents arrested Domingo Salazar, 33, who was described as an illegal alien who had been deported to Mexico after being arrested in a similar sex trafficking case

Sources said he returned to the US and ran a new trafficking ring that brought in several unwitting women from Mexico to become prostitutes

While in Mexico he began a romantic relationship with the teen and later paid a smuggler to bring her to the US in April 2007

After she arrived she gave birth to their baby.

But Salazar forced her into turning $17.50 tricks, at a rate of 8 to 15 tricks per shift.

He and his wife Norma Mendez, 32, began abusing her — including beating her with a brick

Sources said the woman, now in protective custody, had knife wounds, black eyes, broken fingers and broken bones in her hand when rescued.

In January 2008 her baby became ill but Salazar wouldn’t let her take the child to a hospital.

After the tiny girl died, Salazar had the grief-stricken mother put the child in a bucket which they filled with cement and then hid in a storage bin.

The bucket was removed from the apartment yesterday and x-rays determined there was a tiny child inside, sources said.

Investigators were stunned by the cruelty of the case.

"It is unconscionable in this day and age that there are person who would hold other human beings in conditions of servitude and force them into lives of prostitution in order to line their own pockets," said US Attorney Ben Campbell

Enslaved hooker's dead baby found during bust of sex trafficking ring

Authorities remove container filled with cement and body of infant in Sunset Park brothel raid.

Bloomberg urges sex trafficking victims to speak up A bust of a sex trafficking ring in Brooklyn led to a ghastly find - an enslaved hooker's baby entombed in concrete.

Feds and cops raided a Sunset Park flophouse late Tuesday and arrested the brothel's ringleaders and found a 10-gallon Rubbermaid container filled with cement.

X-rays revealed the body of a two-month-old boy sealed inside, officials said.

Domingo Salazar, 33, and Norma Mendez, 32, appeared in Brooklyn Federal Court last night on sex trafficking charges and could face additional counts, law enforcement sources said.

The couple, illegal immigrants from Mexico, forced a young woman into prostitution, viciously abused her and barred her from getting medical care for the infant when he fell ill last January, investigators said.

When the baby died, Salazar and Mendez allegedly forced the mom to dispose of the body in the container, which sat in the 40th St. apartment until yesterday.

"It's horrific," said Carmen Burgos, 45. who works nearby. "I can't have kids and I can't believe they did this to a baby. They couldn't be in their right minds."

The duo launched the prostitution ring out of their 40th St. apartment in April 2007, according to a federal affidavit.

Two months earlier, Salazar met the young woman in Mexico, got her pregnant, and smuggled her into the United States - telling her galpal Mendez was his sister, sources said.

She gave birth to Salazar's son soon after arriving in New York in November 2007, officials said. He still insisted she repay the $2,500 smuggling fee.

"She was working in a candy store but then she was forced to sell sex," said Special Agent in Charge James Hayes Jr. of Immigration and Customs Enforcement. "She was in bad shape."

The woman was driven to customers across the city, made to service up to 25 clients a night and forced to turn over all her earnings, officials said.

Salazar and Mendez frequently abused the woman, punching her in the stomach, slashing her in the arm, hitting her in the head with a brick and bashing her in the face with a wooden board, officials said.

After investigators received a tip about the brothel, the woman, whose name was not released, was rescued from the 40th St. home and is now recovering.

"The girl was always in a short skirt and covered in bruises," said a neighbor. "You'd see different men coming in and out."

Investigators believe Salazar and Mendez also forced other immigrant women into prostitution but they have not been located. The accused pimps face 15 years to life in prison if convicted.

"The trafficking of human beings and sex slavery are unconscionable in this day and age and will not be tolerated," said Brooklyn U.S. Attorney Benton Campbell.

Sick twisted people waiting for amnesty.

Our border is not secure because people like this keep getting in.

Dixie

Ah yes, those old Mexican family values keep on insinuating themselves, even after previous crimes and deportation. Sort of like catching a salmon and throwing it back downstream.

And according to the likes of Fox and Calderon, we should accept these people with open arms?! Who's "Censored" who here already. Man, oh man, when will the authorities finally say enough is enough already. This is just sick. No other way to put it than that. Sick. Oh yeah and pure evil too. I could never fathom how people can be so inhumane to one another, and do things this diabolically.

4 years ago, the House of Reputables passed HR-4437. It would have made illegal immigration a felony, built a 700-mile border wall, and mandated E-Verify for use by all US employers. But the Senate then crafted their own legislation, involving Amnesty, virtually ignoring the hard work that was accomplished by the House. Nothing was passed by Congress.

When I read stories like this, it makes me wonder how many thousands of lives could have been saved if only the irresponsible Senate could have worked more closely with HR-4437.
