From The News Herald:
Burke County Sheriff’s officers were treated to a story that sounded like something from a dramatic novel Thursday night when they were called to hear a young woman’s claim of being sold into slavery in Burke County.
Heather Clarice Harvey Reyes, 25, of Zelda Court, Hendersonville, was at Frye Hospital in Hickory when officers were called to hear from the woman who complained of physical and sexual assault.
