Police received a call Monday morning from a motorist about a 12-year-old girl walking alone along County Road 34 in Dadeville, Tallapoosa County Sheriff Jimmy Abbett said Tuesday at a news conference. According to a criminal complaint, the girl was confined to beds for about a week. She had chewed through her restraints — breaking her braces — and her wrists show signs consistent with restraint, he reports. The 12-year-old had been given alcohol to remain in a “drugged state” and was assaulted in the “head area,” the complaint states. She had not been reported missing, the sheriff said. Jose Paulino Pascual-Reyes, 37, was arrested Monday about 25 miles away in Auburn on suspicion of first-degree kidnapping by U.S. Marshals and police, the sheriff said, adding that other agencies are also working on the case. While searching Pascual-Reyes’ home, detectives found two decomposing bodies, the sheriff said. A team of medical examiners is working to identify the bodies, he said, and how and when they died was not immediately known. The sheriff further stated that “other individuals” lived at the residence. The sheriff did not say whether those people are being charged or held in connection with the alleged crimes at the residence. Pascual-Reyes also faces three counts of murder and two counts of abuse of a corpse, Abbett said in a news release. “We are looking into multiple charges of murder, along with first-degree kidnapping,” Tallapoosa County District Attorney Jeremy Dyer said during the news conference. “And of course, once we continue and complete our investigation, I’m sure there will be many more charges to come.” Pascual-Reyes had a bond hearing from the Tallapoosa County Jail Wednesday afternoon and is being held without bond, according to Abbett, who said an attorney has been appointed. CNN has reached out to the public defender’s office for comment. “It’s horrible to have a crime scene like this and also a 12-year-old dealing with this horrible situation,” Abbett said, calling the girl a “hero.” While the sheriff did not provide details on when the girl might have been abducted or any possible connection to Pascual-Reyes, he said she had received medical attention and was doing well. “She’s safe now and … we want to keep her that way,” Abbett said. The child, who was appointed an attorney, is now in the custody of the Alabama Department of Human Resources, according to the sheriff, who said he checked on the girl Wednesday. “He’s doing as well as can be expected, given the circumstances,” Abbett said.
