Landy Victoria Carrejo indicted on human trafficking charges

Landy Victoria Carrejo, 37, has been indicted on two counts of criminal solicitation to commit human trafficking following an investigation in Chaparral, New Mexico. According to court documents, the allegations involve the sexual exploitation of her two daughters, who were reportedly subjected to abuse starting as young as four or five years old.

Investigators state that the abuse occurred between 2016 and 2024, often at properties located in El Paso, Texas. The victims reported that Carrejo allegedly facilitated encounters with an unidentified businessman in exchange for payments ranging from $400 to $500, as well as gifts such as dolls. One victim reported that the abuse occurred three to four times a month.

The investigation began after a man reported that a teenager had disclosed physical and sexual abuse. Following her arrest by the Otero County Sheriff's Office, Carrejo was initially held at the Otero County Detention Center. While she was released on bail regarding the trafficking charges, she remains in custody under ICE supervision.
