I met them two years ago. I work for them as their domestic worker and what I demand is that they pay me ten thousand dollars for work that is owed to me for two years that they have not paid me. Paid nothing, I demand this payment because I lived with my mother in a place called Atoyatempan in Mexico. She began to find out about diabetes, so it will always complicate her illness and I decided to go to the capital of the Mexican Republic in the federal district to to be able to have money to help her but things started to get worse and then I made the decision to come here illegally as an undocumented person and these gentlemen have taken advantage of a little moment as you know these people and what was the initial deal I made because You have been living with them for two years, explain to me what the circumstances of the meeting were like.

When I arrived in Los Angeles I had to deal with it very difficultly because they ate the waste from the garbage in the parks, that is, I was destitute of jewelry and one day the man saw me, I was sleeping in a bench and he approached me and told me that I could offer him money 600 dollars a month for a roof over my head. At first I felt grateful to them because I finally had a place to be. I knew that they could send money to my mother. The summer plan should work with We go to the house as a maid, you are going to receive food, bed, etc., plus the sum of 600 dollars.

He did not mention the 600 dollars and that was never your understanding at the beginning, but nevertheless you come today to ask for 10 thousand dollars, they did not pay you. What they promised you, no never, they have always taken advantage of the situation that since I am illegal, every time I mentioned it to them they only gave me one hundred dollars a month, the money that I spent included my mother because she is very bad, she already last year he lost his sight and whatever came to mind to talk about the situation and then they told me that since I was illegal I had a bank account where they deposited the money that corresponded to him and then they have a bad deal with me and I can no longer be there Here I want to return to Mexico, what is the deal with you?

There is this demand because then they do things according to how they say they want them or because when I ask them about the money they tell me that there is no such money and they hit you, whoever hits you, he or she or no one? no one hits her the lathe who hits you and well it's true what it is who she is the one who hits you juan I want to return to my country with my mother because they haven't paid me anything for a certain amount of time she doesn't have to put up with the abuse what she is saying because whenever I don't have papers she could leave whenever she wanted we and hit her she would have left he knew she hit you he knew we didn't hit her he did it in front of them say no now what he wants he says She left a long time ago, she could have left because she had to put up with it for so long that I supposedly hit her when it's not true, well, she liked it so much, it's because what she wants to tell herself is to leave, that it's our demand, he's going to tell me Give the money that I need for my mother.

I don't know when it will arrive and I will find her still alive. We want nothing more than for her to leave. We help her because we get her out of the filth in which she lived. She is an Indian. free of hours about two years ago or so I picked it up I found it I spent it in my business that the angels had at that time I spent about a week I saw it lying there it was another day in it begging for alms it didn't eat I grabbed it and I offered him my house I told him and why is the person a homeless person in a park exactly but as there was usually but you are going to be in the house for a while you are looking for a job whatever 23 days I after 23 days I am doing well in that so 100 dollars in three days supposedly you have your room in the house you have the freedom to come and go to do what you need because I escape and contact you says if I were locked up I would be here obviously we don't have it look I five times it could be They spend their time scrubbing, cleaning, bringing them breakfast.

I don't even have a day's rest. After three days, he said, "No, please, better leave the house here for me. I'll help you later. We have three children. One is possible, but how is it possible? At the moment, you don't have one." charity house correct and look what we do is not what they did was benefit they benefited against you they needed a maid and they needed trust that's what I want you to explain to me what the idea was because the other thing was a person from the street for pleasure not because you don't have a charity home but people because they are good people who were benefiting from the work provided by the lady who gives the estimate in this case who brings styles we very well take a short break and continue comfortable sometimes they don't feed us they hit us in the eyes normally with the kidnappings of this lady kidnappings who are facing charges serious crimes facing 30 years of America being with them elisabeth sues her employers she demands the sum of 10 thousand dollars for compensation worked but not received, well, she alleges that they didn't let her leave the house because she was locked up and it sounded more like a kidnapping, even listening to me, tell me, all we want is for her to no longer be close to us, yes, but we live in fear, we have three children and that some can be taken away so as not to help the witness is not in his place it is not people who just come here he is here I work I lost my job because of people because of them but his name is Andrea I come because they asked me to I will support them but please, can I approach you of course so that I can tell you what the people who come from you have to say, shut up or what I do is size and I'll stay with the pedant tumarín here on the street I'm connected no I only have papers.

We just met on the street. He offered me a job. He told me to take care of his unfortunate son. He pays me about 600 dollars. He told me that he was going to pay me and that he would get me to return to Mexico because I couldn't find a job here. I don't eat how they have helped us, I have a part in returning before they haven't paid me they lock me up sometimes they don't feed us they beat us both and I'm afraid the truth is they are very violent the lady is also very violent there is no evidence of this to me you're saying next to me and 0 don't you dare little girl your diatribes system our bow to search engines and unfortunately the worst thing they have is that they became a miserable jolie and please move on to the greatest people and was born please don't let them to do this anymore Don't let any more pass by, Ignacio, please, I'm asking you, Elizabeth Ávila, stay calm, you're tiring, and then they act like good people who help, they're helping the homeless, and we step on our own people, sir, sorry, North American Hispanics, it's the same as this unfortunate doctor before before. speak a higher cost you are listening to what these people do you saw the inner life this woman hitting these girls they promise them money first they employ undocumented people who we know is illegal to do so but well how many no first second they promise them money house they have kidnapped them Because it is a kidnapping, we measured that he gave her the visa, they do not pay them the money they have, how many charges are there, none of them multiple, and normally with the kidnappings of this lady, kidnappings that are expressing charges of serious crimes, facing 30 years in the mind of that, all the other cases charges that you speak apart from that they do have other victims because they have these two and I am worried that they would have I am not sure that this is the way of looking for employees and making them into this slavery is not to blame for helping people the crime that they They are committing it, it is called involuntary slavery, whether it is paid or not, we are talking about Miranda's rights because we are already realizing what is happening here against you.

If you do not have money for a lawyer, you must have to continue and they are going to be facing the payrolls that they did not pay these girls for two years and they did not have a schedule for the many on the ground and there was also a reason for immigration coercion the fact of them mentioning that you are undocumented as they say illegal come on to call immigration that is a reason for coercion that is so serious now these girls are now eligible to apply they are eligible for what is called one or a visa and these visas are reserved for people with hiv girls victims who have been victims of a crime this is a crime police officer that we have here to communicate they were victims of a crime that was within the United States so they are going to cooperate because they have been cooperating because of the testimony they have made thanks to the power to apply on their own for the decision of the case we are going to arrest these people so we can call the authorities in the state of California and have them take the necessary steps to arrest them and prosecute them for having justly helped the conviction to reach you have been contacted by these people in the state of California if you recognize them if they have lived an experience similar to that of these two girls please contact the authorities in the state of California and reveal your situation what the consequences are other than zero to you the lawsuit in in its entirety 12 thousand dollars for you and what is owed to you separately so that you understand what the doctor explained to you.
