Columbian Mom 'sold' virginity of 12 daughters for $200
SHE certainly won't win mother of the year.
Columbian woman Margarita de Jesus Zapata Moreno has been arrested after being caught selling the virginity of her 12 young daughters for just $200 each.
The 45-year-old was detained in Bogota earlier this week after one of her daughters, now 16 and pregnant, contacted police angry over her mother's demand to get an abortion.
Police also arrested the father of the girl's child named as 51-year-old Coelio Daza Columbian news site Semana reported.
Zapata, who has 14 children, would sell the girls' virginity once they reached 12 years of age and would then force them into prostitution to pay the bills.
Police chief Carlos Melendez said: \"The mother contacted highly solvent but depraved men so they could have sex with the minors when they tued 12\".
Both Zapata and Daza are accused of caal abuse of a minor under 14-years-old, and the enforcement of prostitution.
Zapata, whose two youngest children have been placed into care, denies all charges and faces up to 10 years if convicted.
