A Montgomery County (web|news) man has pleaded guilty to holding a Nigerian teenager as a slave for five years.
Fifty-two-year-old George Udeozor, formerly of Darnestown, faces a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison followed by three years of supervised release. Udeozor also has agreed to pay the victim more than $110,000 in restitution.
According to the plea agreement, Udeozor used his oldest daughter's passport to smuggle a 14-year-old Nigerian girl to his Maryland home in 1996. Udeozor and his then-wife used the girl as an unpaid domestic servant and child care provider. Prosecutors say the teenager was physically and sexually abused and did not go to school.
Udeozor's ex-wife, Adaobi Stella Udeozor, was sentenced in 2006 to seven years in prison.
Sentencing for George Udeozor is scheduled for Oct. 7 in federal court in Greenbelt.
110,000 doesnt add up to the pain and suffering this child endured! not even close!
