New Port Richey police say when a woman learned a man sexually abused a boy, she asked the man if he wanted more time with the boy in exchange for money.
Patrol officers got an anonymous tip and passed it on to detectives, resulting in 48-year-old Nicolas Quiles being arrested Monday on charges of capital sexual battery on a 7-year-old boy. Then police arrested 30-year-old Erin Caron of Thonotosassa on Tuesday night on charges of capital sexual battery and child abuse for allegedly making the boy available to the man in exchange for the money.
"Had offered up the child to be victimized at the hands of the defendant," said New Port Richey Police Lt. Jeffrey Harrington. "She responds she received monetary compensation as a result."
Police say Cron admitted to receiving $600 in exchange for allowing Quiles to commit illegal acts with the boy.
"She had indicated to detectives she had used the money to pay bills," said Harrington.
Police are still investigating if there are other victims or crimes connected to Quiles and/or Caron. The alleged victim and his two siblings have been placed in protective custody.
