All three suspects were charged with first-degree murder and aggravated criminal sex penetration of a child under 13.
Martens told investigators that one of the men she arranged to have sex with her daughter was a co-worker. Two other people she met on the dating website Plenty of Fish.
The mother revealed that she did not sell her daughter’s body for sex as she enjoyed watching men rape her. On the day of her 10th birthday, Victoria was drugged with meth, raped and murdered.
Witnesses at the scene told police that Martens plunged a knife into the girl’s stomach. Police found the dismembered body of the girl inside the apartment Victoria shared with her mother.
