A federal monitor raped a Miami woman on house arrest. He didn't count on what she saved [View all]

https://www.yahoo.com/news/federal-monitor-raped-miami-woman-163911735.html


A Miami woman serving part of her federal prison sentence on house arrest didn’t have any choice when the man assigned to monitor her for the Federal Bureau of Prisons wanted sexual favors. As court documents stated, she was under Benito Montes de Oca Cruz’s “custodial, supervisory and disciplinary authority.”

So, she submitted to Cruz’s wishes. But, she also told law enforcement what happened and provided evidence. When law enforcement went to the video and DNA she brought them, Cruz was exposed.

Cruz pleaded guilty in Miami federal court to one count of abusive sexual contact. He’s scheduled to be sentenced April 14.
