A trans-identified male residing in Colorado has been charged with sexual assault, kidnapping, and false imprisonment after taking a woman hostage for three days. On November 30, Hannah Viramontes, 26, took the unidentified female victim captive to abuse as a “sex slave,” and told her he would kill her if she tried to escape. Viramontes, previously known as Cameron Mauldin, is accused of brutally beating and torturing the victim before she was able to escape and contact authorities.
Local news reports have referred to Viramontes simply as a “woman,” with no mention of his transgender status or biological sex.
