A North Carolina teen who was kidnapped and held prisoner for more than a year was fed in exchange for sexual favors, according to authorities.
The 17-year-old girl had been missing since May 2016 until the FBI rescued her Saturday from her alleged captor’s home in Duluth, Georgia.
Michael Ren Wysolovski, 31, who reportedly met the teen online, faces felony charges that include aggravated sodomy, child cruelty and false imprisonment.
During her time in captivity, the teen was confined to an upstairs bedroom, according to a search warrant obtained by the Gwinnett Daily Post.
Wysolovski allegedly maintained strict control over her diet and demanded the teen log in a food journal how many calories she ate each day.
If she ate more than allowed, Wysolovski would deny her meals. She also was rewarded for sex acts with food, according to the warrant.
Doctors examined the teen after she was rescued and determined she was suffering from malnutrition.
Wysolovski, who was denied bond Monday, remains in custody at Gwinnett County Jail.
