Taylor and Brown took the girl to parties throughout the city where she was told to have sex with about 20 men in exchange for money given to the pair, prosecutors said.

While holding the girl against her will, Brown chided her for not earning enough money and slammed her head into the floor, prosecutors said, news agency AP reports.

Taylor told the victim that if she failed to earn more money or tried to leave, he would force her to work as a prostitute on the streets, prosecutors said. He told the girl an alarm on the house would alert him if she tried to leave, they said.

A 17-year-old girl was also being held on charges of promoting prostitution, assault and endangering the welfare of a child, prosecutors said. Her arraignment was scheduled for Wednesday night. She will be charged as an adult.

The 17-year-old was told to oversee the 13-year-old at parties, prosecutors said. She is accused of slapping the 13-year-old at Brown's behest for being too talkative with customers and punching the girl, giving her a black eye, prosecutors said.

The 13-year-old escaped to her family, who took her to a police precinct, police said.

"This case is every parent and every child's worst nightmare, made even more frightening by the fact that one of the defendants is a police officer who swore to uphold the law and the community he serves," District Attorney Richard A. Brown said in a statement.

Zelika Brown was also a hair styllist where I got my hair down every few weeks. I would get my hair down my somone else and listen to her talk about her stripping events/parties. Her hair clients seems to change from normal folks to young girl or women dressed slutty talkng slackness. Anynormal person looking and listen would tell something was not right. her b-friends would come by and just sit there watching and waiting for her. I sorry to hear they got invovled in the wrong thhings but more sorry to the young girl - -I hope she can get help, is healthy, and can get her life together.
