An 18-year-old girl in Texas was chained to a bed and repeatedly raped by a man and a woman over the course of several weeks before eventually escaping her captors, authorities say.

Jose Pedro Reyes Jr., 31, and Jaqueline Macias, 29, stand accused of one count each of aggravated kidnapping, according to Harris County Jail records reviewed by Law&Crime. Authorities in the Lone Star State say they anticipate filing additional charges.

Law enforcement believes Reyes met the teenager somewhere, was able “to gain her confidence” and somehow got her to go back to the house “willingly.” At some point, Herman said, the 18-year-old was “accosted,” tied up, and constrained in a room for some 30 days – possibly even longer.

he pair appeared in court on Monday. A judge set Reyes’ bond at $100,000; Macias’ bond was set at $50,000.

Jail records show that Reyes is due back in court on Sept. 13; Macias’ next court date is slated for Sept. 26.

During the bond hearing on Monday, it was revealed that Macias and Reyes are the parents of an infant, local ABC affiliate KTRK reported. The child was born while the teenager was held captive.
