Three people are under arrest in what authorities called a suburban sex trafficking 'house of horrors.'
The crimes occurred at a home in suburban Schiller Park and the victims were homeless women.
Cook County prosecutors say that Keith Williams, Roman Kurek and Sylvia Topolewski kept a half dozen women hostage, forced them to prostitute themselves.
They were also threatened, beaten, locked up without food for days and were given, and then deprived of drugs.
The suspects are all charged with involuntary servitude and sex trafficking.
