According to charges filed in 3rd District Court, the underage girls went to a hotel with Avila and started to play "spin the bottle." During the game, Avila touched one of the girls "all over her body," the charges state.

At one point, Avila asked the girls to engage in sexual activity with each other, but they declined, the charges state. One of the girls ended up having sex with the man, according to the charges.

Cecilio Avila, who also goes by Julio Avila and Julia Avila, is being held in Salt Lake County Jail on $100,000 bail. Charges list Avila's residence in West Valley City, but jail information identifies him as a Mexican citizen.
