A trio of men are wanted for allegedly sexually assaulting a 13-year-old girl who had an abortion after being forced to have sex with the men for nearly a month under the threat of violence.

According to court documents filed Friday, five men raped the girl after taking her to an unoccupied apartment in southwest Houston and took advantage of her after smoking marijuana around her and then later forced her to have sex under the threat of violence.

Jose Edgar Vazques-Mejia, 20, Kevin Benitez, 19, and Jonathan Benitez, 19, are each charged with aggravated sexual assault of a child and are sought by police. Kevin and Jonathan are twin brothers.

The girl told Houston police that she was picked up by Vazquez-Mejia, the Benitez brothers and two other men she identified as Emerson and Eliseo in a car from her apartment on Feb. 23. Afterward, the men picked up beer, cigarettes and pills and looked for a place to have sex with the girl, the documents state. The men also had marijuana.
