A federal grand jury returned a five-count indictment against them and they have both been charged with forced labor, withholding documents, visa fraud, conspiracy to harbor and harboring an illegal alien.
The couple also have to forfeit their home in Katy, Texas.. Both Chudy Nsobundu and Sandra Nsobundu were accused of mentally and physically abusing the unpaid nanny who is also a Nigerian who lived in their home and was allowed to only eat leftovers, not wash her hair and work about 20 hours a day with no pay.
The woman was rescued on Oct. 10, 2015, following a tip to the National Human Trafficking Resource Center.
If convicted of the conspiracy or forced labor, the defendants face up to 20 years in federal prison. For withholding documents, they face another five years, while the visa fraud and harboring illegal aliens carries a possible 10-year sentence. All of the charges could also result in a $250,000 maximum fine.

Texas is in America/US not Britain/UK
Na wao ooo, wicked people be dis, ooo
This nigerian couple smuggled their house help from nigeria to texas. Having househelps in nigeria is normal. You can even pay them the minimum wage of N15,000 ($100) a month. I don't know why Nigerians will bash this texas couple. They were looking for a cheap maid service in USA. What we call househelp in nigeria, Americans look at it as slavery/captivity. Cos no one over there will work for $100 a month. I think they were just trying to save money. And the house girl was probably living a much better life with them than in Nigeria. So why would you call them wicked people?
Gud for dem..

You don't understand what he is trying to say if it's positive they will say Nigerian if it's negative they will say anything but Nigerian in this case it's Nigerian couple not Texas couple the assumption when u say Texas couple is that the people r Americans distancing themselves from their true identity every country does it so understand before u reply ... Bye
Let us not be too fast to judge this people. They had an agreement abi. I pay for your ticket ,visa,house and feed you . So why are we all condemning the couple. Was the help forced there. she agreed to the terms ABI.
She is the wicked one because all these would have been better for her than in Nigeria ,otherwise she would have said no and stayed back in Nigeria.
Her PASSPORT COULD HAVE BEEN HELD BACK BECAUSE there has been cases of you taking a help there and the person runs away. When you call to inform the parents or relations in Nigeria they will tag you ritualist, sex worker coordinator and even burn your belongings in Nigeria ...
