Three people in Louisiana were facing sex trafficking charges for allegedly allowing an 11-year-old girl to be sexually abused for years in exchange for money or drugs.

The Vernon Parish Sheriff Department identified the suspects as Everett West, 41; Dina Guidry, 56; and Bobby Tisdale, 38, all of Rosepine, Louisiana.

Crime Online reported that the girl said she was in the room with Guidry when she was being sexually assaulted on several occasions.

In a statement, police said investigators obtained information from other adults who indicated that Tisdale offered the child to them for "sexual contact." Detectives also believed that other persons have also been offered access to the child for "illicit purposes."

Police started the investigation in August after detectives received a complaint involving the alleged sex trafficking of a child under the age of 13. The charges indicate that Guidry and Tisdale are the victim's parents or guardians.
