A 39-year-old woman, Marcy Lynn Helms, is going to prison for allowing her 39-year-old husband, Brandon Helms, to rape her 8-year-old child for seven years until she got pregnant at a feces-filled house in North Carolina, United States.
According to reports, Brandon Irving Helms told his wife Marcy Lynn Helms that he wanted the girl to be his “concubine” and he will like her to call him “Lord”.
In a shocking development, his wife, Marcy, let him carry out his sick and depraved wish on the girl which led to her getting pregnant in a feces filled apartment as both man and wife were homeless and mostly lived in a car.
He abused the girl from when she was aged eight and started raping her when she 13, assaulting the girl at different houses in North Carolina.
The teen was raped throughout her pregnancy and she endured a two-and-a-half-day labour with no medical help to deliver her abuser’s baby on a table.
The little girl was then moved into a filthy condemned house when the family became homeless, living there with her baby.
The young child’s ordeal ended in May 2018 after social workers were informed of a family living in unsanitary conditions and upon arresting the man and his wife, saw the abused girl and her child hiding on the floor of the back seat.
Upon interrogation, the little child narrated her ordeal in the hands of Brandon and recounted how she was forced to have unassisted labor for two hours while giving birth in a dirty building .
On Tuesday, Brandon Irving Helms was jailed for at least 88 years for rape of a child younger than 15 and child sexual abuse.
He entered an Alford plea, which means Helms did not admit guilt but acknowledged prosecutors had enough evidence to convict him at trial.
Marcy Lynn Helms admitted she knew the girl was being abused and pleaded guilty to attempted statutory rape of a child younger than 15.
She has now been jailed for up to 31 years and will have to register as a sex offender for 30 years.
